The
Yamaha CLP-865GP combines the elegance of a compact grand piano with the flagship technologies of the Clavinova series, delivering a richly nuanced playing experience that faithfully reproduces the touch and sound of a real acoustic piano.
Keyboard
- GrandTouch-S keyboard with 88 keys
- White keys feature synthetic ebony and ivory tops, providing a natural feel even during extended playing sessions.
- Escapement: simulates the slight resistance felt midway when pressing a key, as on a grand piano.
- Linear graded hammer action: each key is weighted differently, heavier in the bass and lighter in the treble, for a natural response.
- Counterweights: added to certain keys to enhance control during soft (pianissimo) passages.
- Adjustable touch sensitivity with 6 levels (from Soft2 to Hard2, plus a fixed option) to suit your personal playing style.
Sound
