A GRAND BEYOND MEASURE
From the legendary Kakegawa factory in Japan comes a grand piano that brings Yamaha’s celebrated touch, tone and craftsmanship into more homes, more lives and more moments than ever before. Compact in scale yet expansive in voice, the GCB delivers the depth, balance and expressive character that have defined Yamaha grand pianos for over a century.

UNLIMITED EXPRESSION
The Yamaha grand experience begins with the GCB, but the possibilities are endless. Built upon the same principles that guide Yamaha’s world-renowned C Series grands, the GCB reveals a level of resonance, balance and projection that reaches far beyond its sleek, sophisticated footprint. The result is remarkable presence, depth and nuance, giving players the freedom to explore every shade of expression with extraordinary precision.

THE SPIRIT OF KAKEGAWA IN EVERY NOTE
Every Yamaha grand piano, from the flagship CFX to the most compact GCB, is crafted by artisans in our acclaimed Kakegawa factory in Japan. More than sharing a philosophy, these instruments are shaped by the same expert hands, eyes and ears that have refined Yamaha grand pianos for generations, blending the latest innovations with the intuitive wisdom of master craftsmen to reveal the full character of each instrument.

THE DREAM COMES HOME
More compact in size, yet unmistakably grand in character, the GCB carries forward everything Yamaha has learned about the art of piano making and reimagines it to fit your life, without surrendering an ounce of sound. It’s a remarkable instrument that brings the beauty of a Yamaha grand to homes and players everywhere, opening the door to a lifetime of musical expression.

SILENT PIANO FUNCTION
When the SILENT Piano™ function is activated, the hammers will no longer hit the strings and instead, a highly sophisticated sensor-technology captures all movements of the keys and sends them to the digital tone module. Play a real acoustic piano with headphones at any time, day or night without being disturbed or disturbing others. The Yamaha Silencing System is unsurpassed, allowing 24hr practice as well as possessing many other features including a range of pre-installed sounds, being able to record your own performances or connecting mobile devices to use the latest Apps.
