Yamaha GB1KPM Grand Piano GB Series - Polished Mahogany

The GB1K, Yamaha’s most compact grand piano, is a popular choice for locations where space is relatively limited, offering a full, resonant sound comparable to that of many much larger models.

The frame of a piano must be able to withstand a total string tension of over twenty tons; not only does the frame serve to support the string tension, but it has a profound effect on the sound of the instrument. Yamaha makes its own frames, relying on a molding method called the “vacuum process”, the first technique of its kind in the world, developed over many years to create some of the finest piano frames. Over this period, we have accumulated knowledge of factors such as how temperature control and cast iron composition, and even the coating used on the frame itself, affect the acoustic characteristics of the piano. This is one of the main reasons why Yamaha is able to guarantee reliable quality in the manufacture of its pianos.

Yamaha tailors each piano specifically to its purpose. Tuning stability, finish and overall musical integrity are enhanced over the long life expected from a quality piano.
