The 48-inch-tall Yamaha U1 is a perfect for instructors and students. Its studio size, with larger soundboard area and longer string length, projects more power than smaller pianos. Professional musicians love this piano for its rich tone character, comparable to many grand pianos.

For over a century, Yamaha has combined a heritage of Japanese artistry with modern innovations in materials and tone. This creates beautiful and extraordinary sounding pianos. Players at all levels of ability are fascinated with the lavish, moving tone and stunning value of these pianos. Yamaha continues to redefine what a piano can be.

Full-sized upright pianos are the tallest within the vertical piano class. Some are even taller than 55 inches! These taller instruments have large soundboards, long strings and are capable of projecting impressive volume. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many large uprights were manufactured in America, and a fair number of those vintage instruments are readily available. However, caution should be taken when dealing with an instrument of that age. So many unknown factors may have affected its condition- especially when it has sat unmaintained in a poor environment - a basement, a garage or an unheated home or church. Starting with a new, large upright, or used one in top condition, and keeping it properly maintained, will allow it to perform well for many decades to come.
