PERFECT FOR BEGINNERS WITH A SERIOUS INTEREST IN PLAYING THE PIANO!

Yamaha’s P Series digital pianos are loved by piano players around the world who want the comfortable feel of an acoustic piano in an instrument with a more manageable size and weight. With its simple design and ease of operation, the P-145BT focuses on offering a highly playable and authentic experience. Compared to previous models equipped with a GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard, the all-new P-145 features a much shorter and thinner body design with a simple yet more modern and compact style. The newly developed GHC 88-key keyboard is built to uncompromising standards and offers the same weighted acoustic piano-like playing feel as the GHS keys used in previous models in the P Series.

GHC (GRADED HAMMER COMPACT) KEYBOARD OFFERS A REALISTIC PLAYING FEEL

One of the main concerns of piano players when purchasing a digital piano is related to the feel of the keyboard when they play. Some of the things that players are specifically concerned with include whether they can feel the weight of the keys in their fingers as with a weighted acoustic piano keyboard; whether the keyboard will respond accurately when they play quicker passages; whether there are any inconsistencies between how hard they play the keys and the sound that results; and whether the keyboard offers a sufficient soft-to-loud dynamic range. The GHS keyboards used in the P Series thus far have received high praise from customers for the excellent balance and ease of playing that was mentioned above. The newly developed and more compact GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard on the new P Series reproduces the playing comfort of its predecessors in every way. Further, the keyboard unit is more compact than in models equipped with the GHS keyboard, while still offering an outstanding playing feel.

THE SOUND OF A FULL GRAND PIANO

This model features the sound of a Yamaha full concert grand, the CFIIIS: the origin of Yamaha’s premier concert grand pianos, the CFX. The sound was sampled from a piano with a bright, transparent tone with a spacious treble and an overall solid sonic feel. In addition, the P-145BT features a damper resonance function that reproduces the rich resonance sound you hear when pressing the damper pedal, for an even fuller sound.

PLACE THE INSTRUMENT WHEREVER YOU LIKE, OR EVEN TAKE IT WITH YOU

One trouble that plagues pianists is that the acoustic piano is not an instrument you normally carry with you wherever you go. Another issue is that traditional pianos are often too large to fit into a room. The P-145BT provides a brilliant solution to these problems. With its stylish design—the most compact in the P Series—this model blends well with the decor of any room.

By linking the P-145BT with Yamaha’s dedicated “Smart Pianist” digital piano app, you can intuitively perform all operations on the P-145BT from the screen of your smart device. There’s no longer any need to pull out the manual to see how things work.
