It is bigger, can house longer strings and a larger soundboard for a richer, multi-tonal sound. The Yamaha U3 upright model is crafted with the finest materials, strong strings, and a sturdy construction, making it a wonderful piano that will last a lifetime.

This model is available in range of colours and finishes, and this particular model is fitted with the renowned SH2 Silent System.

When the SILENT Piano™ function is activated, the hammers will no longer hit the strings and instead, a highly sophisticated sensor-technology captures all movements of the keys and sends them to the digital tone module. Play a real acoustic piano with headphones at any time, day or night without being disturbed or disturbing others. The Yamaha Silencing System is unsurpassed, allowing 24hr practice as well as possessing many other features including a range of pre-installed sounds, being able to record your own performances or connecting mobile devices to use the latest Apps.
