Me: An ATV for the beach, a Snow Mobile for the winter and a Jet-Ski just because they're fun.

Yamaha: Of course!

I also love that all of the greatest Toyota car engines have had Yamaha heads.

I think just mentioning the LFA suffices

Yamaha often gets overlooked for instruments, I think a lot of this is that we don't expect a company that makes jetskis and motorcycles to also know what they're doing with guitars, saxophones, and pianos, but they actually make good quality stuff.

It's more accurate to think of Yamaha as a conglomerate that owns several different companies. It's just that a lot of those smaller companies are also named Yamaha

Fun fact, the Yamaha logo is an image of three tuning forks, laid atop each other.

They often get overlooked because, in my experience (guitars and violins) they tend to sound like hot garbage. Good for entry level but not much else.

Can't speak for Guitars and Violins, but their drum hardware is top notch amazing stuff

Brother (the printer company), makes world-class sewing machines. Home use and heavy commercial.

[–] Krtek@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

So does Toyota (before cars in fact)

[–] craftyindividual@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hold up before you place the order! I need train carriages, a supercomputer, radiotherapy equipment, nuclear power plant, aircon, self propelled artillery and an escalator. Don't ask me why.

Fine, oh and add that CPU from the Dreamcast

Kind of like how Ball makes soda cans and rocket parts.

Would be funnier if they still made mason jars.

[–] Serisar@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Rockets are just big soda cans with a nozzle to let all the fizz out.
