we are missing data from Jul 1993

<Translate-O-Matic ON>
Records that old are in leaver-arch files, somewhere in the basement, of the old office block. If some random person wants me to troll all the way there and spend 2 hours searching, just to satisfy some fetish about old stuff, they're crazy!

If this gets any more confusing Samantha will have to take the members in hand.

Carefull, we might get a letter of complaint from Mrs Trellis of North Wales".....

Did you know Samantha was a sax player? She likes nothing better than a little potter in the woodshed in the morning"

I emailed Yamaha <[email protected]> on Tuesday regarding the date of manufacture of my YTS-32 (051812) and recieved a reply today confirming it was built in May 1993.

Still not sure if it's a Mk1 or Mk1a or Mk2 (E?) not that it matters.

Yamaha on bell stamped not printed.
Non-tilting pinkie table with C#-B link.
Swivel pin & fork octave mech.
Semi-adjustable bell key felts but not screwed.***
No engraving.
Plastic key touches.
Fixed thumb hook.
Neck has a black badge logo.

*** On my '25 the bell key guards have felt buffers glued to the inside and the guards are solid.
On the '32 there are holes in the guards into which the felts are pushed but no screw cap like the '62? Are these adjustable but just not as fancy?

It feels the same to play as the '25 (identical key work) but sounds to my ears - richer, deeper, lusher than the '25. I'm very lucky and have found what I was after.

MK2 E according to yamaha then.

I've had three Yamaha's a 21 a 32 and an RD250E, in preference the 32 came third.

Different folks etc
I've got a 23 (Vito), a 25 and now a 32.
My preference is 32>25>23!
