Yamaha

Yamaha are well known for making a wide range of things; from acoustic pianos to trumpets, golf clubs, motorcycles, skis & even archery bows! Whatever they put their design skills to, Yamaha always hit the mark in terms of quality and performance.

The roots of the Yamaha Corporation can be traced back to the organ when, in 1887, a local school needing repairs for their reed organ contacted Torakusu Yamaha, the third son of a Samurai. Yamaha, who had originally trained as a watchmaker, was so fascinated by the workings of the instrument that he decided to build one himself.

From these humble beginnings, Yamaha has grown to become the world’s largest musical instrument manufacturer. They are now particularly well known for their world renowned digital and acoustic pianos, and have gone down in history for their classic synths like the DX7 and the CP80 that shaped the sounds of the 80’s and brought the likes of FM synthesis to the hands of the masses.

Synths & Keyboards

From the DX7 and CS80, there's now the Montage, Genos, Reface and MODX range of flagship Yamaha Synths which stills allows musicians easy access to masterfully built instruments that'll become a core part of your live or studio set up.

Mixing Desks

1987 saw the first live mixer from the company, since then they've provided mixing desks that are small and tiny, perfect for the band rehearsal or DAWless jam, all the way to festival and arena level boards. Their rich history of effects can be found in today's desks and offer excellent value for money as well as being built to last.

Monitors

The term "HS" has become legendary within the recording and mixing community, their HS7 speakers are regarded as one of speakers that is commonly recommended to both professionals and amateurs alike and gained Yamaha an amazing reputation for Yamaha studio monitors This heritage is kept alive with a other additions to the HS line catering to rooms of all sizes and uses.

Guitars

Just like their history and care with synths and pianos, Yamaha's guitar range, Yamaha acoustic guitars, Yamaha electric guitars and Yamaha bass guitars have the same care and love, offering excellent feel with elegant designs. Guitarists can be found across the world using and swearing by these instruments.
