    Any one play a CF Series Yamaha Grand

    When I bought my N2 Avant Grand at Cunningham Piano in King of Prussia, PA, I saw they had a CFX there. It gets used at the Academy of Music. I was looking at it in awe, and Rich Galassini said go ahead and play it. It was an amazing piano in terms of tone and feel. Best piano I have ever played, and I have played a few Steinway Model D, although mostly in college practice rooms, so they were pretty trashed in terms of action. Hope to play a good Steinway D one day. I play on my teacher's Steinway Model B at my lessons.

     

    Moog One. The Polyphonic.

    2018 - Moog One released - $7999.00 list

    2028 - New multidimensional synthesis method-based synth released by Yamaha - everyone sells their Moog One for $800

    2033 - Everyone now thinks multidimensional synthesis sounds too thin, sterile, and sounds are overused. Keyboardists long for warm analog sounds

    2024 - Vintage Moog Ones now selling for $25,000

     

    Seriously though, hope is sounds as good as it looks and its specs say.

    Unusual synths... past and present

    Though they may not be as rare of some of the other synths, I always wondered about the Crumar DS-1 and DS-2 synths. They followed the aesthetic of the other Crumar keys in their day (like the T1 and T2 organs), but they always looked a bit odd to me. Never got a chance to play one. One of the first DCO synths.
