The CLP-350 also features a headphone jack for private practice sessions, making it ideal for home use.

The design of the Yamaha Clavinova CLP-350 reflects Yamaha's commitment to quality, boasting a sleek, elegant cabinet that complements any room decor. It includes three pedals that mirror the functionality of an acoustic piano, providing sustain, soft, and sostenuto effects.
