I assume Teddy Wilson is one of the biggest influences you've got because that smooth playing certainly sounds like him! Also I still am going to repeat that you're very lucky to to be able to get tenths as easily as you do ;) There's a lot of pianists who are limited by hand span!
I've heard and played bright Yamahas but holy cow, that one needs to be voiced down xD Kudos to for being able to actually play the thing with almost no pedal, it's very hard with a dry toned piano sometimes!
