This flagship model features the GrandTouch keyboard with wooden keys and counterweights, GP Response Damper Pedal, and world-class Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial piano samples.

Product Overview
The CLP-895GP showcases stunning grand piano cabinet construction in a lustrous polished ebony finish that exudes timeless elegance and sophistication. Measuring 57 3/4" W x 40 1/2" H x 18 3/4" D, this beautifully crafted console merges classic grand piano aesthetics with contemporary digital innovation. The mirror-like polished ebony finish reflects Yamaha's heritage of premium piano craftsmanship, making this instrument a magnificent centerpiece for any room while maintaining the compact footprint of an upright console.
The GrandTouch keyboard with wooden keys delivers unparalleled authenticity through 88-key linear graded hammers and counterweights. Each key features wooden construction with synthetic ivory white keys and textured ebony black keys that replicate the natural feel of acoustic grand piano materials. The escapement mechanism provides the characteristic "click" sensation felt when playing grand pianos, while the light-to-heavy counterweighted keys ensure precise playability across the entire keyboard. The GrandTouch pedal system and GP Response Damper replicate grand piano pedal resistance curves with remarkable accuracy.
Advanced sound technology includes binaurally sampled Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand pianos with Grand Expression Modeling. The revolutionary 300-watt, 3-way speaker system features spruce cone speakers, diffuser technology, and bidirectional horns that recreate the natural sound projection and reverberation of an acoustic grand piano. Virtual Resonance Modeling calculates string, damper, and soundboard resonances in real-time, delivering vivid, richly varied expression that captures countless performance nuances. The Touch Sensor control panel elegantly disappears when not in use, preserving the instrument's traditional aesthetic.

Key Features
GrandTouch Keyboard with Wooden Keys and Counterweights
The GrandTouch keyboard represents Yamaha's ultimate achievement in digital piano key action. Wooden white keys cut from premium, well-dried lumber provide superior tactile response and moisture absorption. The 88-key linear graded hammer system assigns each key its authentic weight, while counterweights enable nuanced control from delicate pianissimo to powerful fortissimo. Escapement simulation delivers the satisfying click sensation unique to grand pianos, providing tactile feedback that enhances expressiveness.
Binaurally Sampled Concert Grand Pianos
Experience the powerful, crystalline Yamaha CFX concert grand and the warm, resonant Bösendorfer Imperial with unprecedented realism. Binaural sampling captures these legendary instruments from the player's perspective using specialized microphones positioned like human ears, creating three-dimensional sound that feels natural even through headphones. Each of the 88 keys was individually recorded across multiple velocities by master piano technicians, capturing every tonal nuance and harmonic complexity.
Grand Expression Modeling and Virtual Resonance Modeling
Grand Expression Modeling technology enables infinite tonal variations based on the subtlest differences in touch intensity and speed, replicating the limitless expressiveness of acoustic grands. Virtual Resonance Modeling calculates sympathetic string vibrations, damper resonance, and soundboard reverberation in real-time for each note, considering which keys are pressed, pedal timing, and strike velocity. This creates the complex, evolving harmonics characteristic of world-class acoustic pianos.
Revolutionary 300-Watt Speaker System
The 3-way speaker system with 300 watts of power delivers room-filling sound with exceptional clarity and depth. Spruce cone speakers—made from the same wood used in acoustic piano soundboards—provide natural tonal warmth. Diffuser technology, waveguides, and bidirectional horns optimize speaker placement and orientation to recreate the natural sound projection patterns of grand pianos. This sophisticated acoustic design ensures listeners experience immersive, realistic piano tone from any position in the room.
GP Response Damper Pedal and Recording Features
The GP Response Damper Pedal precisely simulates the resistance and tonal variation of grand piano dampers, sensing the exact moment dampers lift from strings and blending tonal changes with pedal depth. The 16-track MIDI recorder allows layered compositions with different hands recorded separately or overdubbed with various voices. Audio recording in WAV format captures performances to USB flash drive, while Smart Pianist app integration enables direct recording to iOS or Android devices.
