The Yamaha CH-500 Chime features larger diameter chime tubes with extra wall thickness to produce a full, rich tone. The quick., positive pedal damper system has a lock to hold the damper open until it is easily released by touching the pedal. Heavy gauge steel uprights and crossbars reduce sway and increase stability during performance.Wire
Coated steel wires are wrapped in a fluorine resin tube. The double covering prevents noise and gives the sound more projection and clarity.

Damper
The CH-500 is equipped with a three board damper system that permits quick dampening, and a one touch damper stopper to hold the damper open.

Base
The U-shaped pedal offers easy operation from any playing position. The base section is designed with a heavy-duty structure to provide maximum stability.
