Ian,

I don't pander myself to any product because I am being paid to use them. How can you be objective and fair when you are being paid to tout a specific brand? Stating anything that would be contrary to what Yamaha wanted you to would almost assuredley put you out of a job.

You still didn't answer the questions I asked either. I wonder why?

You're statement that you only have to please yourself and not me isn't true. Your job is to please others regarding the Yamaha brand and promote it in a manner necessary to sell products. If you didn't "please others" you wouldn't sell any product and you'd be looking for another job. That's a fact.
