Do I have very thick skin because I didn't interpret Yamaha's statement as being "snarky." I see it more as not wanting to show their hand too early. I trust the friend who told me they are starting from scratch. If you don't want to be notified I certainly would take your place in line. I'm.always interested in new models from various brands. Some stand the test of time while others sink faster than the Titanic. Tucker, I don't want you to take these comments in a negative way. They clearly know that the serious bass players are not at all happy with their current top of the line bass. Check out Clark Fobes' wonderful article in the Clarinet magazine where he compares Buffet, Selmer and Yamaha.

Selmer Series 33 and Privilege; Fobes Ron Reuben

P.S.:It probably will appear in Japan and Europe before it arrives in the US. In 2006 I picked up a Selmer brochure in Tokyo's Yamaha store, in the Ginza district. It showed the Selmer Privilege bass and this was years before it appeared in the US. I also got a Yamaha brochure which showed a bunch of attractive clarinet cases. They too were not available in the US and I think have only become available in the US since the CSVR came out. A big name retailer also told me that we always get the newer products last! Go figure that. In 2004 I was able to visit a Tokyo High School and I wondered what kind of ligatures the clarinetists were playing. They were Ishimoris.
