1986 Yamaha U3 52" Polished Black Upright Piano

The 1986 Yamaha U3A is one of Yamaha’s most recognized full-size uprights. At 52", it offers strong performance with excellent tonal depth and projection.

The taller cabinet allows for longer strings and a larger soundboard, which produces a fuller bass and more sustain compared to smaller uprights.

This piano has been fully refurbished, with comprehensive action work and regulation to restore consistency and responsiveness.

Tonally, it has that classic Yamaha sound—bright, clear, and powerful—making it a very versatile instrument.

What I like about this Yamaha U3A:

• 52" upright — full, powerful tone
• Strong bass and projection
• Fully refurbished action
• Clear, bright Yamaha character
• Polished black cabinet

This is a go-to choice for teachers, advancing students, and anyone wanting a high-performance upright.
