| Every few months,
Leonard and Wee make their way to Japan to personally inspect,
play and select less than 15 pianos at a time for import into
Singapore.
We select pianos strictly based on the following criteria:
- The piano action is clean, fully functional
and without any broken parts
- All parts of the action are have their ORIGINAL
or better aftermarket parts that are proven to enhance the
performance of the piano
- Tuning pin torque is good and not loose
- Strings are NOT rusty/Bass strings must not
be dead
- Tone must be Warm, Lush, Brilliant and yet
Singing, with a wide, controllable dynamic range
So here's our sales pitch: The quality of materials
used and the care and attention to detail taken in the construction
of these handpicked pianos (they almost always end up sounding
better than a new Yamaha upright) are very high.
WE GUARANTEE for 5 years
that the pianos we sell to you will NEVER EVER present any
problems whatsoever, and we are prepared to replace any defective
piano that we sell to you with a similar, if not better instrument.
Your piano also comes with a 5 year parts guarantee.
Your new piano comes with 2 in-your-home tunings
and a pre-delivery preparation. This includes polishing
the cabinet, brass componentry, keyboard and minor adjustments
of the piano's touch and tone to YOUR liking.
The pianos described below represent one of the best upright
pianos of all time and also one of our popular selling models.(Click here to

- The Yamaha U1 and U3 Professional Upright Pianos -
Representing the line of Professional Studio
uprights, the 121cm tall U1(also called MC10/U10BL) as is
the best selling piano of all time to come from Asia. Teachers
and professional musicians can attest to their quality, tone
and touch of this brilliant instrument. You will find this
piano in many Yamaha studios and in almost any home. This
piano has been dubbed the original "examination model" and
has left nearly ALL piano companies trying to copy it's design
to date, sans the Kawai 121/131cm series.
The Yamaha U3 (also called the U30BL) is the
U1's bigger sibling with longer strings and bigger soundboard
area. This contributes to a more rumbling and thunderous bass,
warm, lush tenor and a brilliant treble. These pianos are
used when more power and projection is needed. This piano
is commonly known as the "upright grand" because the speaking
length of it's strings are similar to that of a Yamaha Baby
Grand.
Tip: They are only $300-$600 more than a U1 when
bought used, as opposed to a price difference of
$2000-$3000 when bought brand new.
-The Yamaha Concert Professional Upright series-
The Yamaha "X" series Professional Upright Pianos
are for those who want a serious replacement for their small
grand pianos. These pianos are a significant jump over the
U1 and U3 pianos. They have a star shaped back frame to better
balance the overall tension. Hammers are made of a higher
quality felt from both Yamaha and Renner of Germany, and the
scaling of the strings are a slight improvement from the U
series pianos. The action has a more precise feel to it, contributing
to a more lively and controlled response. There is a tone
escapement slot in the front cover of the cabinet for increased
clarity.
The 121cm range includes the YUS, UX1, UX10 and
the WX1.
Pianos of the 131cm range include the X, YUA,
YUX, UX, UX3, UX30 and the WX3
All the Yamaha are extremely stable and virtually
maintanence free apart from the yearly/twice a year tunings
and a minor regulation/voicing every few years.
