Beautiful, clear sound for the intermediate player.
Yamaha’s 6000 Series chimes feature rich fundamental tones, long sustain, and a beautiful, clear sound. The YCH-6018 features a lower playing position compared to the YCH-7018, making this instrument ideal for shorter players.
The head cap on the YCH-6018 chimes is designed to deliver a richer fundamental tone, pitch definitions and a longer sustain. The head caps deliver a wider sweet spot, so it’s easier to find an optimal tone. With a silver-colored finish, the head caps pop against the gold-colored tubes for a nice contrast.
Yamaha’s patent-pending Damper Rod Clamp System keeps everything in its place. Designed for greater clamping strength and a secure hold, the system prevents any slippage when the damper pedal is pressed.
Damper response is also improved in the YCH-6018. Yamaha aligned the damper movement with the front-to-back motion of the chime tubes when they are struck. It’s easier to stop any extended sustain of the chime tubes. Lastly, a swivel prevention function was added to the caster locks.
