How large is this piano?
All grand pianos have virtually identical Width and Height. Length is the only dimension that varies dramatically from one grand piano to the next.
Please note: These dimensions are estimates only. Due to cosmetic differences in cabinet trim, exact dimensions of any specific example of this model may vary.
Why is Length important? Longer pianos allow for longer strings and greater soundboard surface area, so they usually produce more sound than smaller pianos, but they naturally occupy more space.
What size should I buy? Most industry professionals recommend choosing the longest piano that your space can comfortably accommodate.
A rare, world-class Yamaha concert grand.
Yamaha's CFIIIS 9' concert grand piano represent the company's ultimate effort to produce a world-class concert-hall instrument. This premium limited-edition concert grand is hand-made in a dedicated facility by a small team of some of the world's most highly-skilled piano craftsmen.
Attention to detail permeates every aspect of the creation of each Yamaha CF Series grand piano, from the meticulous selection of the instrument's tone woods, to the hand-winding of each bass string, to the hand-pressing of each hammer felt, to the exceptional final factory voicing and regulation by Yamaha's master craftsmen.
The result is an instrument which very few pianists and technicians have yet had the opportunity to experience in person (owing to their extremely limited production quantities). Those who have, however, tend to rank them among the world’s finest instruments, and they have frequently been selected by pianists participating in international piano competitions.
A masterpiece of power and precision.
The Yamaha CFIIIS is the pinnacle of concert grand craftsmanship — an extraordinary instrument built for the world's most demanding concert stages. Handcrafted in Japan using the highest quality materials and decades of engineering refinement, the CFIIIS delivers an exceptional blend of dynamic range, tonal depth, and expressive control.
Measuring 9 feet in length, this flagship concert grand is designed for symphony halls, conservatories, and performance venues where power and nuance must coexist. Its voice is bold yet refined — capable of cutting through a full orchestra or whispering the softest pianissimo in an intimate recital. Yet despite its commanding presence on stage, the CFIIIS would be equally welcome in the home of any discerning pianist or collector who simply wants the best. Whether you're playing traditional classics, contemporary works, or anything in between, the CFIIIS offers the tonal flexibility and responsive action to bring every note to life — even if that performance is just for you.
Features include:
- Premium spruce soundboard selected for its resonance and tonal integrity
- Yamaha’s custom hand-wound bass strings for a rich, balanced low end
- Duplex scaling for enhanced sustain and harmonic complexity
- Precision-regulated action designed for effortless control across all dynamics
Chosen by elite pianists and institutions around the globe, the Yamaha CFIIIS has earned a place among the finest concert grands ever built. If you seek an instrument that combines Yamaha’s renowned consistency with concert-level artistry, the CFIIIS is the definitive choice.
A visually striking showpiece.
This CFIIIS features Yamaha's renowned contemporary styling, complete with a high-gloss polyester cabinet. To prevent reflected glare in the eyes of orchestral musicians, the CFIIIS is designed and produced at the factory with a lid that features a matte (satin) finish.
Remarkable savings.
With the comparable new hand-built Yamaha concert grand piano (the Yamaha CFX) priced over $204,000, we're confident you'll appreciate the amazing value offered by this fabulous instrument.
