The world’s most trusted professional upright — available in our rental program.

If you’re looking for a piano that event professionals and serious musicians instantly respect, the Yamaha U Series is the gold-standard upright. For decades, U Series pianos (including the legendary U1 and U3 models) have been a go-to choice for teachers, conservatories, studios, and performance spaces because they deliver what matters most: reliable tuning stability, a responsive touch, and a clear, full-bodied tone that projects beautifully in real-world rooms.  

Why the Yamaha U Series is so respected

    •    Professional feel & control: A precise, ultra-responsive touch that supports everything from light classical passages to powerful pop and jazz playing.  

    •    Clear tone that carries: A balanced voice that records well, blends well, and still has the presence to stand on its own in a room.  

    •    Built for consistency: Yamaha’s U Series is known for structural strength and long-term stability—one reason it’s so widely recommended by teachers and relied on in frequent-use environments.  

    •    Quality materials: Yamaha notes U Series soundboards and ribs are crafted from solid spruce selected at their Kitami Mill in Hokkaido, Japan, supporting a resonant, evenly balanced sound across the keyboard.
