Crazy, but fun question (this is a funny topic!)

[hbofinger]

May 27 we are going on a cruise to Bermuda. The ship we booked, the Celebrity Summit, has two suites with Yamaha grands in them, with the Disklavier system.

I looked at the photos of the suite we booked, and this Yamaha has a beveled lid. Would that make it a C-series piano? I have a C-7, and it has a beveled lid. I wonder if the beveled lid indicates conservatory series?

I have a photo of the piano in the suite:



And yes, I met the technician who tunes it on the previous cruise, so it is maintained!

I question your definition of the words "fun" and "funny".

OK I can now reply back to this thread.

First of all, it was a Yamaha C1, in pretty good shape, I got a lot of practice in.

Secondly, why I thought this was a fun question, and all of that:

We were taking the Celebrity Summit, with a suite that only two of exist on that ship, with 2,500 plus passengers. So we were one-percenting this cruise. But we are not one-percenters. It was a fun extravaganza that we went for, and enjoyed. The wild part was that with a grand piano, parquet flooring, and two Jacuzzis this suite was not "bling", there were no golden toilet bowls. So we went a bit overboard, and in the end enjoyed it.

Now back to the piano: C1, already too voluminous for the suite. Not badly maintained, but it now loses tune more quickly. But I loved it nonetheless, and it was a great experience.

I have a C7 at home...
