Re: Yamaha custom CS model and value?

Hello,

I have a Yamaha CS Custom - it's a terrific instrument. I get to trade shows, festivals, etc., and have played all the newest Yamahas - CSG, CSV, etc., as well as the newest Buffets, Selmers, and the like. I like them very much, but not any better than my CS. Paired with a Backun bell and barrel, it plays like a dream. Of course, with any instrument, you can get a gem or a dog. I'm lucky I got a gem.

The only instruments that I would consider an "upgrade " to my CS are the Backun MOBA and the Ridenour Libertas (which I now own as well). Anything else would be a lateral move at best (at least for me, YMMV).
