What we think:
Excellent piano for the small concert hall. This is what Yamaha say about it.
What Yamaha say:
“Individually assembled in the Yamaha concert grand workshop, Yamaha´s S6A grand piano is conceived and crafted to gratify the most discerning professionals. Recently redesigned to incorporate the latest Yamaha advances, it proudly reflects the pinnacle of piano-making expertise, and the apex of artistry by those who play it. New bridge materials deliver warmer, richer tones and extended resonance. Refinements in the specifications of copper-wound strings generate purer, more perfectly pitched and harmonious bass tones. Heavy-duty double casters, like those of the concert grand, offer improved mobility. Aesthetic refinements including redesigned legs, music desk and lyre, and beautiful new plate and inner rim surface finishes, provide a distinctively elegant appearance. A new lip prop safety stop guards against insecure prop positioning.”
