YAMAHA U1 48" Professional Upright Piano In Polished Ebony With Matching Bench

YAMAHA U1 48" Professional Upright Piano, Polished Ebony, With Matching Bench.

A perennial favorite among discerning pianists, educators and institutions, the Yamaha model U1 professional series upright piano offers outstanding musical performance, setting the standards by which many other upright pianos are measured.

Advanced scale design and refinements in all elements of sound production have given today's new U1 a richer, more resonant tone with evenly balanced timbre across the entire keyboard.

Unlike many manufacturers, Yamaha takes a total approach to piano-making: it retains complete control over virtually every component at every stage of production—even to the point of building the manufacturing equipment. Rather than assembling pianos from parts produced by outside companies, or contracting with third parties to build its pianos, Yamaha designs, tests, evaluates and manufactures all components in its own Yamaha-owned factories.
