Yamaha b3 SC3 Silent Piano - Polished Ebony

The introduction of the Yamaha b3 to the b series range sees it approach professional standards while remaining true to the b series' design philosophy of value and affordability.  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.
