Crafted by Yamaha in Kakegawa, Japan – 1973

The Yamaha U3 Reconditioned Acoustic Upright piano in Polished Ebony is a professional 131 cm upright piano renowned for its power, clarity, and responsive touch. Built in Kakegawa, Japan, this 1973 model reflects Yamaha’s golden-era craftsmanship. Carefully reconditioned, it offers reliable performance with the tonal depth expected from a full-height U Series instrument.

The finest woods

The soundboard and ribs are made from solid spruce, hand-selected at Yamaha’s Kitami Mill in Hokkaido. As a result, the piano produces a richer, more resonant voice with consistent tonal balance across the keyboard.

Back posts, forward thinking

The five solid spruce back posts provide exceptional structural support. In addition, Yamaha’s proprietary wood-drying process ensures long-term stability and sustained resonance.

Advanced V-Pro frame

Yamaha pioneered the V-Pro Vacuum Shield Mold casting process. Consequently, the frame is stronger, lighter, and highly durable. Each U Series piano features a full-perimeter frame built to exacting standards in Japan.

The patented aluminum action rail resists fluctuations in humidity and temperature. Therefore, the keyboard maintains consistent regulation and touch response over time.
