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;

• Does the keyboard respond accurately when they play quicker passages
• Are there any inconsistencies between how hard they play the keys and the sound that results
• Does the keyboard offer a sufficient soft-to-loud dynamic range.
• Can the 'feel' of the keyboard be regulated from a soft to hard 'touch'.

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 previous models, while still offering an outstanding playing feel.

This model features the digitallysampled sounds of a Yamaha CFIIIS full Concert Grand Piano.

The sound was meticulously sampled from a grand piano with a bright, transparent tone with a spacious treble and an overall solid sonic feel.

Additionally, the P143 features a damper resonance function that reproduces the rich resonance sound you hear when pressing the damper pedal, for an even fuller sound.

We are sure that you will enjoy the profoundly deep character of this instrument’s sound, so characteristic of that of a real grand piano. It goes without saying that this instrument doesn’t require tuning.

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 P143 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.

With the optional soft case, you can take the P143 with you to the studio, to a party, to live gigs, or on a trip—whenever you need it.

*Headphones and pedal are optional

By linking the P143 with Yamaha’s dedicated “Smart Pianist” digital piano app, you can intuitively perform all operations on the P143 from the screen of your smart device. There’s no longer any need to pull out the manual to see how things work.

*When connecting a smart device to a musical instrument to use the app, you can either use a cable or connect wirelessly using the Yamaha UD-BT01 (sold separately; for iOS only).

The P143 is a design that perfectly embodies the expression "less is more". Yamaha's research has found that many people who love playing the piano simply don’t want to pay for a lot of rarely used features.
