Hi all- looking at purchasing a 1989 C3 Yamaha for my studio. Is there any significant reason to not purchase this model but to get a later model for structural engineering design reasons? Also - I could get a refurbished Yamaha G5 for a little less- which is the better option for recording jazz/blues etc? The G5 is a tad bigger no? Also- what is a fair price for such pianos? Cheers and thanks GJ Newcastle/OZ

Fine for demos and back round pop-rock stuff, but that's not really the sound that you'd often want up front. A U3 (upright has longer strings).
