Yamaha U3 Professional Upright M3378842

The Yamaha U3 is the taller version of the popular U1 Yamaha upright. The extra height enhances the sound in the bass because it allows for longer bass strings. More than that, since the soundboard area is also greater, the tone of the piano in all registers is richer.

The U3 has been a popular choice for over 60 years. They are sought after in the used market, so they hold their value very well. The U3 (and the shorter U1) are some of the most popular pianos found in practice rooms, teaching studios and homes around the world.

There are many used U3’s out there. Finding one that isn’t worn out or compromised in condition can be a real challenge. With a list price well over $10,000, finding a U3 that has been well cared for and barely played over the years is rare.

This Yamaha upright is a great example of a U3 in great condition with an action with minimal wear, and no evidence of any environmental degradation. The piano has a large open tone that is sure to please. Our technicians have gone through and performed high level service to this already exceptional upright.
