Special optical sensors – fitted under each of the keys – capture the individual nuances of your playing with astonishing accuracy. It is this level of precision, so typical of Yamaha, that makes it possible to play natural-sounding notes with utmost accuracy, which are then relayed perfectly through your headphones.
How is a silent piano different to a digital piano?
If your heart desires a traditional acoustic piano, but your head is drawn to the convenience and practicality of a digital piano, opting for a silent piano could be the ideal solution.
Whilst digital pianos rely purely on technology to produce sound, silent pianos enjoy the best of both worlds.
Still a fully strung acoustic piano, the Yamaha SILENT Piano has built-in functionality allowing you to switch to quiet mode, play silently, and connect headphones and other devices – so you can enjoy playing without worrying about causing a disturbance!
Why choose a Yamaha SILENT Piano?
Yamaha is a world-renowned piano manufacturer. Releasing their first silent piano back in 1993, they have continued to evolve the concept, improving the performance of their sound-muting technology.
Yamaha SILENT Pianos are ideal for children who are learning or for anyone self-conscious about practising with an audience. They also make a great choice for people who prefer to shut out distractions or who have busy lives and only have time to play during more unsociable hours.
Silent pianos offer the freedom to play whenever the mood and opportunity take you – without having to compromise on the quality of your sound!

Richard Lawson's service was wonderful throughout… read more the process. Colin was super responsive and helpful, even on the weekend, resulting in my delivery of a Yamaha with brand-new silent system in a week. Delivery was also very efficient despite stairs and narrow corridors.
I wanted a Yamaha C6. I saw one on eBay. I worried… read more about its state as an eBay item but found it was being sold by Richard Lawson Pianos, it was also on their website with many other pianos. I checked as many reviews as I could find about this company and found them hugely positive. That gave me the confidence I needed to make contact by email. Richard responded promptly. A visit to the showroom would have been difficult for me at this time and after a few emails between us I accepted Richard’s assurance that the piano was excellent. I decided to buy the C6. It was delivered by a team of three people who were clearly experienced in moving pianos as it had to come a circuitous route into the house; another happy experience as they were also good people to deal with. Richard spoke truly – it is an excellent Yamaha C6. A good piano is an expensive purchase. If you want value for money and a pain free experience, choose Richard Lawson Pianos.
