Yamaha U-Series upright pianos have been the primary choice of educational institutions, professional musicians and discerning pianists. Now, thanks to the new comprehensive design, these world-class instruments are better than ever, with countless advances in materials and construction.
Refined scale models and components have improved tonal performance, while other modifications have increased strength and durability. Extra wide shelves provide plenty of space for sheet music.
Refinements in all elements of sound production have given today's U Series a richer, resonant voice with evenly balanced timbre across the keyboard. The configurations of the soundboard and the FrameSpecial structure add strength to the soundboard, while other improvements further increase rigidity, resonance and structural stability.
U Series hammers use materials specifically selected for each model to provide optimum tone production, response and long-term durability. The cover has the Soft-Close damping mechanism, previously used only on grand pianos, which prevents the cover from falling abruptly on the keyboard, protecting against accidental damage or damage.
