Yamaha U3 (Upright Piano)

• Acoustic Design and Soundboard Craftsmanship: The Yamaha U series pianos feature an expansive soundboard and acoustic chamber, crafted from specially-seasoned spruce to deliver outstanding resonance and rich, full-bodied sound. The precise design enhances projection and ensures evenly balanced timbre across the entire keyboard, crucial for both practice and performance.
• Yamaha Action Mechanism: Equipped with the peerless Yamaha action, the U series provides an exceptional tactile experience, offering pianists greater control over expression and dynamics. This iconic action mechanism ensures a responsive and consistent touch, essential for both advanced pianists and those developing their technique.
• Durable and Responsive Hammer Construction: The U Series uses hammers crafted from materials chosen specifically for optimal tone production and durability. This ensures that the piano not only provides a superb tonal range, but also stands up to the demands of prolonged usage without compromising on sound quality.
• Soft-Close Fallboard: Yamaha's U series pianos come with a soft-closing fallboard mechanism, previously only found in grand pianos. This feature prevents the fallboard from slamming shut, protecting the pianist's hands and preserving the integrity of the piano's keys.
• Advanced Frame Building: Utilizing the V-Pro Vacuum Shield Mold Process, the U series boasts a frame that is built to withstand the test of time and enhance sound quality. This meticulous process contributes to the piano's structural stability, which is vital for both the instrument’s longevity and consistent tonal accuracy.
• Elegant and User-friendly Music Desk: The U series offers an extra-wide music desk, providing ample space for sheet music. This feature addresses the practical needs of musicians, ensuring convenience and focus during both practice sessions and performances.
• Meticulous Material Selection: Every part of the U series, from the seasoned spruce keys to the premium quality felts, is carefully chosen to meet Yamaha’s exacting standards. This intense focus on material quality ensures that each piano not only looks exquisite but also excels in performance and durability.
• Soft, Mute, and Damper Pedals: The comprehensive pedal system allows for nuanced sound expression, catering to different playing styles and techniques. The pianist can alter the sound's sustain and volume, providing a further layer of tonal versatility which is ideal for both solo and ensemble playing.
• Safety Features: The U series pianos are designed with a safety-conscious mindset, equipped with a fallboard lock to prevent unauthorized use and protect the piano's internal mechanisms. This is an especially important feature for educational institutions and public performance venues.
• Colors and Finish Options: With various elegant finishes including Polished Ebony, Polished Mahogany, Satin Ebony, Satin American Walnut, and Polished White, the pianist can choose a piano that not only sounds exceptional but also complements the aesthetic of any room.
• Types of Casters: Depending on the model within the U series, either double-wheeled or single-wheeled casters are fitted, ensuring ease of movement and positioning without compromising the piano's stability.
• Yamaha SILENT Piano™ and TransAcoustic™ Systems (availability may vary by model): These innovative technologies expand the capabilities of the U series pianos by allowing for silent practice through headphones or sound augmentation, connecting with smart devices, all without affecting the instrument's acoustic performance.
