Advantages: A bright evenly toned piano for all abilities Disadvantages: Some of the older models do not have the soft close lid
The YamahaUseries of pianos are an excellent choice for the intermediate to advanced player. I am a piano teacher and have recently fallen in love with the Yamahapiano. I am in the process of changing my current piano which I always thought was a very good piano to the YamahaU3.
I have introduced to them through my former piano teacher as he has one himself.
What can I say. The tone, the fabulous rich bass and the craftsmanship that comprises this instrument is second to none. The stylish glossy black finish makes it a classy addition to any home. This is the sort of piano that will last you a lifetime.
it features a quiet pedal for practice and some models have a soft close lid (not that I believe that a piano lid should ever be closed). You cant really go wrong with the U3 or any of the Yamaha range. ...
Advantages: Responsive, beautiful tone, elegant Disadvantages: Hard to clean, loud!
that you only need to tap it to get a response. This makes it perfect for more technical work, such as trills and ornaments, which are so difficult on an older piano with a less responsive action.
Yamaha is the brand to go for if you want a superior upright, without the extortionate cost of a Steinway. But it is vital that you consider the risks of buying second hand. You should be able to get a decent used U3 for around £2-3000, but to be honest it's not worth the hassle. You can't really tell the condition of the soundboard, how much wear it's had and whether it needs a complete overhaul. The only problem with buying a new one is that they go down quickly in value. However, they do tend to stabilise at around this price, making it a good investment.
You have to also take into account that the older Yamahas were less well made. There ...
Advantages: Quality and cost. Disadvantages: Doesn't quite have the status of the similar size Steinway piano.
I have been able to compare the largest YamahaUpright with the equivalent pianos from Steinway and the mass produced Boston (marketed by Steinway) These pianos look identical in size and shape.
If you are a serious musician, and you keep in practice, you will probably prefer the Steinway. This has a firm touch, giving an experienced player a wider dynamic range and range of expression.
The Boston is identical, but about half the price of the Steinway, and has a lighter touch.
The largest Yamahaupright is also identical, and has a lighter touch than the Boston. It is between a quarter and a third of the price of the Steinway.
Used Steinways and Bostons are rather difficult to locate, and if they have been reconditioned it is important to establish who has done the work, as a used piano is only as good as the technician ...
