  Ad on back cover of the February Journal ...



  CABLE-NELSON designed and built by Yamaha



  Why?



  I'm sure it's a price-point piano (the ad even says
"attractively priced") so they can keep Yamahas pricey. But the
name, to me, screams "run of the mill" and similar terms.



  There were a gezillion Cable-Nelsons manufactured, so I guess
they are just going for name recognition.

       That was my reaction also (WHY Cable-Nelson?!)  Maybe the
Koreans already own the rights to a lot of the famous German
names?
