Re: Yamaha CSVR

I tried one last weekend at CASMEC, which was taking place alongside the CA all-state ensembles. I had just tried one of the other models (can't remember which - low F correction key and side Eb lever), and the person managing the Yamaha booth urged me to try out the CSVR, saying that they were excited to be introducing it.
It was in a noisy room and I only tried it for a minute or two before I had to leave, so I can't really go into details about the exact specifications of tuning, tone, etc. From what I could tell, though, it was a very nicely-built and nice-sounding instrument. The key action felt very natural, and something about the tone stood out to me in comparison to the other instruments they had on display - I guess you could describe it as a warmer or lighter sound. No glaring intonation issues stood out to me. Was definitely among my favorite few instruments I tried there.
