The 50 and 60 were like that, too.
I remember walking into a music shop in Memphis and saw what I later learned was the CS-80. I would have never known or even had a clue until I had to find out what one looked like after UK and Eddie Jobson!
Six years later, I bought Roy Orbison's.

The only location are on the model # and serial # plate...
Just Yamaha on the front surface and on the back of the tolex...
I think Yamaha left the biggest CS80 imprint in the sound....

Same here.
Lots of TLC, and a CS50 on the side to cannibalize. ..
BTW, on a totally different subject, a stupid question, people:
Has there ever been a CS80 with the actual name printed somewhere on
its surface??
Mine doesn't have it.
Does yours?
I haven't seen any on the 'net that do, either. WTH..?
If this was the rule, then it only adds tothe exotic and mysterious
air of this beautiful instrument.
I mean, what other analog poly would share this peculiarity. .?
Thanx.
