YAMAHA C3X - We Found Another!

Yamaha’s Flagship Studio Grand – Inspired by Bösendorfer, Built for Serious Performance

The Yamaha C3X is part of the CX Series—a line of premium grands introduced as a major redesign of the legendary C Series. Drawing inspiration from Yamaha’s acquisition of Bösendorfer, the C3X features a deeper tone, longer sustain, and greater dynamic nuance than its predecessors. Thickened rims, redesigned hammers, and refined scaling give this 6'1" grand a rich, powerful voice that easily rivals pianos far above its size class.

This is not your typical C3. The CX Series commands a significantly higher price point when new, and as a result, used C3X models are exceptionally rare in the U.S. market—especially in this condition.

Key Features

• 6'1" Grand from Yamaha’s Premium CX Line – redesigned with enhanced tone and sustain

• Thickened Inner Rim – improves projection and resonance

• Custom-Voiced Hammers – warmer tone, more dynamic range

• Inspired by Bösendorfer – Yamaha’s boutique Viennese sister company

• Polished Ebony Cabinet – timeless appearance in excellent condition

• Built in Japan in 2013 – modern, high-end construction

Refurbishing & Final Prep

This piano was professionally refurbished in Japan to an exceptionally high standard, with action work, hammer shaping, string cleaning, and cabinet detailing all handled by a top-tier facility in Hamamatsu. This level of care is part of why we source directly from Japan—it sets a strong foundation.

Once the piano arrives in Seattle, we take that work a step further. Every piano is inspected, regulated, and voiced in our shop to bring it to the highest standard possible. This final stage ensures a consistent, expressive touch and a balanced tone that performs beautifully across all registers.
