A new addition to the Yamaha GC Series
The GCB is Yamaha’s newest and most compact GC Series
grand. Its 5' design provides a practical option for
spaces where a larger grand may not be suitable while
retaining the responsive touch and resonant tonal
character associated with Yamaha grand pianos.
Its compact size makes the GCB well suited
for homes, teaching studios, and other settings where
space is an important consideration.
Crafted in Kakegawa, Japan
Every GCB is crafted at Yamaha’s Kakegawa factory in
Japan, the same facility responsible for Yamaha’s full
range of grand pianos, including the flagship CFX
concert grand.
More than a century of Yamaha piano-building experience
comes together with modern manufacturing precision and
skilled handwork throughout the building, regulation,
voicing, and finishing process.
Rich resonance in a compact design
The GCB uses front duplex scaling and a tone collector
to help develop harmonic richness and resonance beyond
what its compact dimensions might suggest. Its
structural design efficiently distributes string
vibration throughout the instrument, while Yamaha’s
carefully balanced action gives the player the control
needed for everything from delicate passages to more
powerful playing.
