Upright Pianos PIANOS


U Series The time-tested choice of professionals
Long a leading choice for educational institutions, professional musicians, and discriminating home pianists, Yamaha U Series uprights are designed to deliver the impressive performance that those in the know have come to expect from Yamaha.



Distinctive U Series Features


Advanced scale design

All elements of sound production have been meticulously refined to give the U Series a rich, resonant voice with evenly balanced timbre across the entire keyboard.


Soundboard and frame

Special rib configurations add strength to the soundboard, while backpost and other advances further enhance rigidity, resonance, and structural stability.
 

Floating Support System (U3)

A ‘floating’ attachment method, similar to that used in grand pianos, allows the soundboard to vibrate more freely, improving the depth and character of bass and mid-range tones.


Specially designed hammers

U Series hammers use materials specifically selected for each model to provide optimum tone production and response as well as long-term durability.


Soft-closeTM fallboard

A damping mechanism, formerly used only in grand pianos, prevents the fallboard from dropping abruptly onto the keyboard, guarding against accidental injury or damage.
