Junko,
I have no idea what Mr. Soejima is talking about. I tune many, many Yamaha's each year and they are usually tuned very well, unlike Adams, for instance. I know most of the Yamaha model numbers but I'm not in my shop right now and am not sure which the #410D is.
However, there should be 4th and 10th partials tuned AT LEAST in the lowest octave. Then 4th partials AT LEAST up to C5. After that they sometimes get lazy, like Musser, and stop tuning even the 4th partial.
What do you mean by 'S-Curve"? Do you mean like the shape of the tuning curve in the lower end of xylophones?
