Frequently Asked Questions Is the Yamaha C2 a professional grand piano? Yes. The C2 is part of Yamaha's C Series professional grand range, built in Japan to the same quality standards as the larger C3 and C5. At 173cm it sits between the baby grand and the full concert size, offering a professional playing experience in a size that is practical for many home music rooms. It is used in conservatoires, music schools, and by serious home pianists worldwide. How does the Yamaha C2 compare to the C3? The C3 at 186cm is 13cm longer than the C2, which gives it a larger soundboard and slightly longer strings, producing a fuller, more resonant sound with greater dynamic range in the bass register. For most home players and advancing students, the C2 is an outstanding instrument. For a professional or advanced player who wants the maximum from a Yamaha grand without moving to a C5, the C3 is the next step. We stock both and are happy to let you compare them. How does the Yamaha C2 compare to a Kawai or Steinway at a similar price? A Kawai grand at this price will offer a slightly warmer, more mellow tone with excellent action quality. A used Steinway of similar size offers the distinctive Steinway sound and heritage at a significant premium. The Yamaha C2 occupies a strong position, consistent, reliable, professionally trusted, and excellent value for a C Series instrument. We stock grands from all three manufacturers and are always happy to let you play and compare. Is a Yamaha C Series grand better than a G Series? The C Series replaced the G Series and incorporates refinements to the soundboard, rim construction, and action. Most piano technicians and players consider the C Series a step forward from the equivalent G Series model. If you are comparing a used G3 with a used C2 at a similar price, the C2 is generally the more modern and developed instrument, though the G Series is still highly regarded in its own right. How long will a Yamaha C2 last? A well-maintained Yamaha C Series grand should give 50 to 60 years of professional-level service. Regular tuning, periodic regulation and voicing, and sensible placement are the basic requirements. This example has been assessed and prepared by our team and is ready to play.
