Features
Rim
The size of the rim and the processes used to manufacture it have been overhauled to provide greater strength. This gives the instrument a firmer feel and provides support for a presence that can be felt in the farthest regions of a hall.
Strings
The coils have been overhauled to provide better bass sound.
Bridge materials
Materials used in production have been reevaluated to match the new design of the CF series. String tension balance has also been rethought to provide a stable, clear sound.
Soundboard
Soundboard shaping techniques have been improved to allow the soundboard to vibrate freely and provide the maximum amount of resonance, giving the instrument a spacious sound with a strong attack.
Hammers
Hammer material is carefully selected, and the hammers themselves have been redesigned to emphasize a balance with the overall instrument design.
This design focuses on the piano legs and KEYBOARD ENDS
An appearance that embodies "Power and Beauty," the concept behind the CF Series. These pianos have a beautiful, eloquent silhouette that inspires an impression of tone. (The design features less unnecessary elements in the shape, to avoid impeding the creativity and expression of the performer. Every part, from the legs and supports, to the sideboards and rear of the soundboard, have been joined together beautifully, giving a pure, simple silhouette intended to enhance the appearance of the performer. )
Lid (surface, edges)
The lid edges feature a new design that offers a better overal balance with the legs and keyboard ends.
Pedal box
Internal mechanisms build on the heritage of the models preceding the CFIIIS, with a design that features a new configuration intended to provide superior playability.
Finish
CF pianos feature an improved finish that offers a deeper black and a better gloss.
Frame / Serial number logo / Lid lock knob
A new design that showcases the CF4's identity as Yamaha's flagship piano.
Frame
The CF4 features a new grid layout for the tuning pin area for improved attack, tone, and sustain.
