I am very cautious about this item... This price ($469) is $430 LESS than at Musician's Friend. Can anyone verify this is the "real (Yamaha) deal" ?

This is a student flute, in store price is about $530, plus tax will be $580 in store. But this one no tax on Amazon, can save $100 for it.This one is good for beginning. And quality is good. I don't know Misician's Fruend, maybe there has different model, hard to compare.

This is a real Yamaha flute, nothing wrong with it. If you want to go for a better flute, I'd recommend going to a music store to find one in the $1K range, this one didn't work out too well for me after a few months of improvement.

I recently bought one and it comes w/ a warranty & product #. Yamaha logo & model # is engraved on the flute so I'm assuming it's original. Since it sounds so much better than a rental I would definitely recommend it.

I also was worried about paying so much about a flute. I think I paid 600.00 for my daughter. I bought it when she was in 6th grade she is in 8th now. she is still using that flute. No problems what so every. I really did get what I paid for. I also looked at buying from Musician Friend but instead I got it off amazon because of not paying the extra taxes. Also my daughter is going to be in marching band with that same flute next year.

Yes , it's a real Yamaha Flute , it was shipped from Korea so don't worry. The quality of the sound is AWESOME!!! I got it like nearly 500 bucks because I was in a hurry. The school OLDS flute sucks!

JLH, it's the real deal! The real Yamaha deal! I have had this flute for quit some while, and it has proven to be of even better quality than of my friends' flutes. Its price is remarkable compared to the quality it has provided for me.

I just bought it at digitalelectronics4less.com for $180. I'm confused since it is listed for about $260 everywhere else (and sometimes much more!)...but it appears to be new and have all accessories. Score!

Other reviewers say they got new ones. At this price, even if it is remanufactured, I would buy it. It's a great amp. Tons of power and very reliable. Make sure it has a little room around it to breathe.

Jono... would you want to buy mine. It's practically brand new with... a double bass kick pedal. Let me know.

I notice that Amazon has two vendors selling the Mark IV for $6600. I am a big Amazon Fan however I believe they do themselves a disservice by listing Scalpers (neither of which I've ever heard of) selling the product at $1600. above suggested retail. Three months from now they'll be selling for $200.00 below suggested retail. In any event I am patiently waiting for my number to come up. Sure would like to hear from others on the "Wait" list and those with recent arrivals.

could be. I bought mine for $1460 shipped through a top-rated seller on ebay back in January. I'm glad that it's still not even $100 cheaper 4 months later.

The one I got is the real deal but I paid $300. I don't know about $56. I know they came out with another slightly improved model but I would contact the seller on this one. Who knows, you might be getting a killer deal.

Sorry, but I can't answer that. I share the same concern. I actually ordered the bass for a friend, and he hasn't had a chance to play it much yet. I guess we'll have to find out the hard way.

Jeff I do not own the guitar anymore. I realize it was only $200, but I still wasn't all that impressed with it. Sorry I can't help you with this. Good luck!

if you are going to wait on these to come out be sure to checkout electronics expo.....they send out coupons all the time that make prices much more attractive. For example I just received coupon code WS901X8108 from them and it discounts the YSP 4000 and discounts the yamaha receivers as well. cant hurt to check it out, and saving money is always a good thing.

Amazon has it back in stock at $17.95 and free shipping eligible. I see the Electronica Direct vendor now dropped their price to $16.95 to compete, a week ago they were ripping people off at $59.95 for the same item! I'm not going to give them any of my business, I'll stick with Amazon, they've treated me fairly over the 10 years I've been a customer.

Hi Randy I paid about $16 for this same model when I purchased. Dont think it is worth $32. I believe the link you are pointing to is indeed Fx115-ES Plus.

Another thought - it looks like the TX-SR507 and 607 will be available shortly. Maybe a 707 and 807 will follow soon. Why this would lead to a price /increase/, much less a widespread increase mysteriously to exactly MSRP on the same day sans collusion or corporate coercion, is beyond me. Maybe if an 807 is available soon at a sub $700 price I'll bite, otherwise I think I have narrowed my search down to Sony ES or Yamaha.

Steven L, if you read my review of this player, you should know that the other player to which I referred was the Onkyo 7030. I set them up and did an A:B comparison. With most discs, the differences were barely perceptible. On a few, the Yamaha sounded just a tiny bit "muddy" when compared to the Onkyo. My wife was unable to discern any differences. Both are excellent players. But if it helps your decision making process about getting one of these to add to your "stack," be aware that I am returning the Yamaha and getting a 2nd Onkyo.

I really would like to listen more about purchases from those who bought this Sennheiser CX 300-B directly from Amazon.com. Right now I would not even trust the 3rd party seller in Amazon that selles earphones at full price EVEN with 100 % positive reputation. At least guitarsonmars seems to be a lucky guy who got a legitimate product. If more guys show up telling that they got a legit product from Amazon, I would be encouraged to regain my confidence with Amazon (only in with this product), but at the moment it seems to be rolling dices at best. More updates would be highly appreciated. Therefore, plz. anyone who purchased Sennheiser CX 300 write something here.

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.
