SX Series soundboards share the same DNA as our world-renowned flagship CFX. The soundboards and
ribs are crafted from hand selected European Spruce to deliver warm overtones and a wide range
of colors.

A patented wood maturation process we call A.R.E. (Acoustic Resonance Enhancement) allows our
craftsmen to precisely control the moisture content in the hand-selected wooden rims of every SX
Series piano. The result is a warm, intimate tone with the sustained resonance comparable to a
vintage instrument.
-
The back posts have been thickened to give SX Series pianos a robust backbone to project the
most powerful fortissimo while maintaining its rich, resonant sound. A time-honored assembly
process decreases the use of glue on the inner and outer rims so nothing gets in the way of the
natural vibrations of the wood.

Yamaha craftsmen spent years shaping the finest materials into a hammer that helps create warm,

to bring out the nuanced colors, harmonics and resonance from these superb instruments.

Yamaha was the first company to use an advanced Vacuum Shield Mold casting technology called
V-Pro to create a stronger, lighter, more durable frame worthy of the grandest grand piano.
Every SX Series frame is built to our exacting specifications at our Iwata Forge in Japan.

The SX Series is made for the stage, with graceful curves that are as elegant and expressive as
its unmistakable tone.
