Yamaha are after the top end of the market having nailed the bottom end with the F series so I wouldn?t be too surprised. Perhaps a typo though.

I have picked up ?2500 Yamahas and put them down again as not very special at trade fairs. No UK shops seem to wish to stock them though. You?ll find the L series and especially the novel Transacoustic models all hovering under a grand.

You can pay ?50k for a Yamaha piano if you are so minded and some of their woodwind and brass can leave you a few grand out of pocket. I?m sure they want a stake in the area where Lowden, Froggy Bottom and Sobell dwell.
