Yamaha UX Professional Upright Piano For Sale

Most people are conversant with the renowned Yamaha U upright series. Well, the Yamaha UX is a higher line piano than the common U series and it also highlights finer woods and higher grade felt.

Reinforcing the crown within the soundboards makes sure that for years and many more years after, the tone quality will remain up to standard. Furthermore, the process improves tuning stability. Glue is used to attach the soundboards to the notched liner; the inner rim on the piano.

Spruce Soundboard

Just like the Yamaha U3M upright piano, the Yamaha lumber mill and wood processing facility uses solid spruce instead of the alternative poplar or laminated spruce. This is also similar to all fine pianos. The best spruce is quarter sawn with only less than 10 percent chosen and retained for the Yamaha piano soundboards. Solid spruce guarantees the best tone, sustain and amplification of sound.

V-Pro Plate

Metal Action Rails

One of the best creations Yamaha engineered to improve piano action in the last 100 years is the metal action rails.

Consequently, there will be a stable, long-lasting action regulation.

Spruce keys

On all models of pianos, Yamaha uses Spruce for the keys. Although its price is higher than that of basswood or sugar pine, the Spruce keys respond faster providing quick repetition for the most elaborate piece of music. The outstanding design used for Yamaha keyboards enables them to handle heavy use over several years of fortissimo passage.
