Yamaha CS80

I am really looking forward to checking this out at the Frankfurt show.

However the questions remains - and I guess it has been discussed here
in the forum a while ago - for those who want to mainly use it with a
CS80 (like myself): what is the the proper key weight to choose?

Cheers
Worsel
