Yamaha B3 — 121 cm upright with a full, defined tone

The Yamaha B3 encapsulates over one hundred years of Yamaha experience in an upright piano designed to offer great reliability and a sound performance superior to its price range. The design aims to combine selected materials and updated construction techniques to ensure a powerful tone and a dynamic response appreciated by both students and the most demanding musicians.
The cast-iron frame produced using the V-Process ensures greater strength and contributes to a wide, articulated tonal range. The presence of four rear posts further reinforces the frame, giving the instrument a deep resonance and mechanical stability that is hard to match in the same category.
The soundboard, made from solid selected spruce, is designed to maximize resonance: the upper crown-shaped element and the calibrated ribs enhance sound projection, while the three-layer maple bridge maintains tuning stability over time.
The action, built to rigorous standards and hand-voiced, offers a balanced and warm response; the improved hammers and the design of the transmission contribute to better articulation of the touch. The keyboard, with an acrylic resin coating and black keys in compression-molded phenolic resin, delivers an ebony-like feel with high durability.
Construction details are also carefully addressed: the cast brass pedals ensure durability and performance, the tuning pins are machined with precision cuts to preserve tuning stability, and the pinblock is tested to withstand changes in temperature and humidity.
The result is an instrument that offers power, depth and expressive control at an affordable price: the Yamaha B3 is intended for those who seek build quality and playing comfort without sacrificing economic value.
