The plates are traditional sand cast, and not V pro. Many of the S4's that we saw, would hold their own with the very best from Europe, for tone, touch and cosmetic detailing. In my book the S4 is the finest piano that Yamaha makes. Beautifully balanced. Pity about the price though. Regards Roger. Roger Jolly Saskatoon, Canada. 306-665-0213 Fax 652-0505
