CF4

The CF Series pianos are characterized by a wide palette of tonal colors and the ability to create the most subtle expressive nuances. The CF Series pianos can "sing" phrases with a depth of expressiveness rarely heard. The six foot three length of the CF4 will fit in a recital hall or teaching studio, but has a surprisingly big sound.

Features

Rim

The size of the rim and the processes used to manufacture it have been overhauled to provide greater strength. This gives the instrument a firmer feel and provides support for a presence that can be felt in the farthest regions of a hall.

Strings

The coils have been overhauled to provide better bass sound.

Bridge materials

Materials used in production have been reevaluated to match the new design of the CF series. String tension balance has also been rethought to provide a stable, clear sound.

Soundboard

Soundboard shaping techniques have been improved to allow the soundboard to vibrate freely and provide the maximum amount of resonance, giving the instrument a spacious sound with a strong attack.

Hammers

Hammer material is carefully selected, and the hammers themselves have been redesigned to emphasize a balance with the overall instrument design.

This design focuses on the piano legs and KEYBOARD ENDS

An appearance that embodies "Power and Beauty," the concept behind the CF Series. These pianos have a beautiful, eloquent silhouette that inspires an impression of tone. (The design features less unnecessary elements in the shape, to avoid impeding the creativity and expression of the performer. Every part, from the legs and supports, to the sideboards and rear of the soundboard, have been joined together beautifully, giving a pure, simple silhouette intended to enhance the appearance of the performer. )

Lid (surface, edges)

The lid edges feature a new design that offers a better overal balance with the legs and keyboard ends.

Pedal box

Internal mechanisms build on the heritage of the models preceding the CFIIIS, with a design that features a new configuration intended to provide superior playability.
