Yamaha A1 Grand Piano
The Yamaha A1 is a compact, Japan made baby grand sitting below the C1 in Yamaha’s range. Its main strength is size and price, making a grand possible in tight rooms. The limitation is tone, with shorter bass strings than a U3 upright. Best for space-led buyers, not sound-led ones.
...more -
Yamaha A1L Grand Piano
The Yamaha A1L is a compact Japan made baby grand, closely related to the A1 and sitting below the C1. Its strength is size, making it viable in very tight spaces. The limitation is tone, with shorter bass strings than a U3 upright. Best for space and budget led buyers, not performance focused ones.

Yamaha B1 Upright Piano? Is it any good?
The Yamaha B1 is Yamaha’s entry level upright, made in Indonesia and sitting below the U1. Its strength is price and compact size. The limitation is performance, with shorter keys, weaker tone and lower build quality. Suitable for beginners on a tight budget, but most players should consider a U1 instead.
...more -
Yamaha B1SC2 upright piano
The Yamaha B1SC2 is an entry level upright with a factory fitted silent system, sitting below the U1. Its strength is quiet practice and low price. The limitation is performance, with short strings, short keys, and basic build. Suitable for beginners needing headphones, but a U1 with silent system is a better long term choice.
...more -
Yamaha B2 upright piano - A Strange Choice?
The Yamaha B2 is an entry level B-series upright, sitting between the B1 and B3 and below the U1. Its strength is modest size and price. The limitation is performance, with shorter strings and weaker touch than a U1. Suitable for tight budgets, but a reconditioned U1 is usually the stronger choice.
...more -
Yamaha B2SC2 upright piano
The Yamaha B2SC2 is a B2 upright with a factory fitted silent system, sitting below the U1. Its strength is quiet practice and moderate size. The limitation is performance, with shorter strings and entry level build. Suitable for budget buyers needing headphones, but a U1 with silent system is a stronger long term option.
...more -
Yamaha B3 upright piano
The Yamaha B3 is the tallest piano in the B-series, offering good height and improved build over the B1 and B2. However, it’s made in Indonesia and can be outperformed by similarly priced used Japanese models. Many players eventually upgrade, making a reconditioned U1 or U3 a stronger long-term choice.
...more -
Yamaha B3SC2 upright piano
The Yamaha B3SC2 is the tallest B-series model with silent functionality, offering good value and practicality. However, it’s Indonesian-built and may feel limiting over time. For similar money, a reconditioned Japanese U1 or U3 typically delivers superior tone, touch, and long-term satisfaction, making it a stronger overall investment.

Yamaha C1 baby grand piano for sale - Review and information
Are you considering a Yamaha C1? Get in touch with your budget and preferred age, and we’ll suggest suitable options. The C1 is a sought-after Japanese-made baby grand, known for reliability, strong resale value, and consistent tone. It suits serious players needing quality in a compact, home-friendly size.
...more -
Yamaha C108 Upright Piano
The Yamaha C108 is a compact, budget upright suited to light use. Its 108cm height limits tone and depth, so most players outgrow it. For better sound and long-term satisfaction, aim for a 120cm+ upright such as a reconditioned Yamaha U1 or similar Japanese-built model.
...more -
Yamaha C110 Upright Piano
The Yamaha C110 is a small, budget upright made in China, suitable for basic use. Its short strings limit tone and depth, and many players quickly outgrow it. It’s better than a C108 but if you’re serious about progress, aim for a 120cm+ Japanese model like a Yamaha U1 for far better sound and longevity.
...more -
Yamaha C1L Grand Piano
The Yamaha C1L is essentially a C1 with minor design updates, offering the same reliable build and strong resale appeal. It’s a compact, high-quality Japanese baby grand suited to serious players with limited space. Differences are subtle, so value depends on price rather than performance gains over a standard C1.
...more -
Yamaha C1X Grand Piano
The Yamaha C1X is an updated C1 with subtle refinements rather than major changes. It offers excellent tone, build quality, and resale value in a compact grand. Most players will find a standard C1 or C1L delivers similar performance, making price and availability more important than chasing the latest variation.
...more -
Yamaha C2 Grand pianos for sale - Review and information
The C2 offers a warm, balanced tone and responsive action, suitable for most players. Slightly compact for a grand, its bass is lighter than larger models, but overall it’s a strong, versatile instrument with broad appeal. If you are considering a C1 but have more space, consider the C2, too.
...more -
Yamaha C2L Grand Piano
The Yamaha C2L is essentially a C2 with minor design updates. It delivers strong tone and touch in a compact 170cm grand, ideal for smaller rooms. Differences are minimal, so a standard C2 offers similar performance. If space allows, stepping up to a C3 brings noticeably richer bass and greater depth.
...more -
Yamaha C2X Grand Piano
The Yamaha C2X is an updated C2 with minor refinements, offering excellent tone and touch in a compact 170cm grand. Differences are subtle, so a standard C2 represents similar value. Ideal for smaller spaces, but if budget and room allow, stepping up to a C3 delivers noticeably fuller bass and greater depth.
...more -
Yamaha C3 Grand Piano
The Yamaha C3 is a professional-level grand with powerful bass, clear tone, and strong dynamic range. At 186cm, it offers a noticeable step up from smaller models and suits serious players, studios, and homes with space. Expensive, but widely regarded as a long-term instrument that rarely needs upgrading. We’ve had loads of these in stock and they are always great.
...more -
Yamaha C3L Grand Piano
The Yamaha C3L is essentially a C3 with minor updates. It delivers powerful tone, full dynamic range, and long-term reliability. Differences are subtle, so condition and price matter more than the model suffix. If you find a good C3, you’re getting virtually the same performance without needing to chase the “L” version.
...more -
Yamaha C3X Grand Piano
The Yamaha C3X is a premium grand offering powerful tone, responsive action, and long-term reliability. Differences from earlier C3 models are modest, so condition and price matter more than the “X.” It suits serious players and studios, though size and cost are significant. A well-prepared C3 can deliver similar satisfaction.
...more -
Yamaha C5 Grand Piano
The Yamaha C5 is a 200cm professional grand delivering deep bass, strong projection, and refined touch. It suits serious players, studios, and venues. Size and cost are the trade-offs. If you have space and budget, it’s a long-term instrument that rarely needs upgrading.
...more -
Yamaha C5L Grand Piano
The Yamaha C5L is essentially a C5 with minor updates. It delivers powerful bass, strong projection, and concert-level performance in a 200cm grand. Differences are subtle, so condition and price matter more than the “L.” If you find a good C5, you’re getting virtually the same instrument.
...more -
Yamaha C5X Grand Piano
The Yamaha C5X is a 200cm concert-level grand with powerful bass, strong projection, and refined action. Differences from the C5 are modest, so condition and price matter more than the “X.” Ideal for serious players, studios, and larger spaces; a well-prepared C5 can deliver similar performance for less. The C5 is quite rare but the C5X is so rare that it’s not really worth holding out for one.
...more -
Yamaha C7 Grand Piano
The Yamaha C7 is a 227cm concert grand with powerful bass, huge projection, and professional action. It suits venues, studios, and serious players with space. Overkill for most homes, but a long-term instrument with strong resale. Used prices vary widely; condition matters more than age.
...more -
Yamaha C7L Grand Piano
The Yamaha C7L is essentially a C7 with minor updates, offering the same concert-level performance. At 227cm, it delivers powerful bass, huge projection, and a refined action suited to serious players and venues. It’s often too large for typical homes, but condition matters far more than the model suffix.
...more -
Yamaha C7X Grand Piano
The Yamaha C7X is a 227cm concert grand with powerful projection, deep bass, and refined action. Differences from earlier C7 models are modest, so condition and price matter more than the “X.” Best suited to large rooms, studios, and venues; often excessive for typical homes but a true long-term instrument.

Yamaha E108 small upright piano made in Japan - Review & information
The Yamaha E108 is a compact Japanese upright with solid build quality but limited tonal depth due to its size. Suitable where space is tight, but its short bass strings restrict richness. For long-term satisfaction and better sound, a taller model like a U1 offers a clear step up.
...more -
Yamaha G1 Grand Piano review & information
The Yamaha G1 is a compact Japanese baby grand offering good build quality and value. Its smaller size limits bass depth, and age makes condition critical. Ideal for homes wanting a grand without the footprint, but a G2, G3, or even a U3 upright will deliver a fuller, richer sound. It’s like an older C1, go for it
...more -
Yamaha G2 Grand Piano
The Yamaha G2 is a mid-sized Japanese grand offering strong tone, reliability, and good value. Longer than a G1, it delivers improved bass and projection. Age is the main risk (it is the older version of a C1), so condition is critical. A well-prepared 1970s/1980s G2 suits most players, though a G3 or C3 gives a fuller, more powerful sound.
