Introducing the Yamaha b Series

Designed as a combination of superb value for money and outstanding quality, derived from over a century of piano manufacturing expertise, Yamaha b Series are a perfect entry point to buying your first acoustic upright piano. A concise range of three different sized uprights from the 109cm modern style b1 to the 121cm tall traditional style b3, there is a b Series piano to suit every space and budget. Each model is available with Silent Technology - allowing you to play silently, using headphones, any time of day or night.

Yamaha b1 upright piano

Carefully designed to maximise the tonal quality and response from a small frame, b1 is a perfect choice for a smaller room and equally ideal for a beginner. Delivering the renowned Yamaha sound at an affordable price, the chic and slender b1 is also a great addition to a modern interior. It is worth comparing the b1 against the slightly larger but similarly styled Kawai K-15.

Key features:

• 109cm tall
• Modern style cabinet
• 3-ply, laminated spruce soundboard
• 88 keys & 3 pedals including celeste for quiet practice
• Available in polished ebony, polished ebony with chrome fittings, polished white, polished mahogany and polished walnut

Yamaha b2 upright piano

A more refined instrument than the compact b1 and slightly taller at 113cm, the b2 benefits from an elegant, traditional style cabinet design with castors and front pedestal legs, along with a solid spruce soundboard for enhanced tonal quality. A popular choice of family piano, comparable with the Kawai K-200 and Irmler P118, and perfectly suited both the beginner and more advanced pianist.

Key features:

• 113cm tall
• Traditional style cabinet
• Solid spruce soundboard
• Castors
• 88 keys & 3 pedals including celeste for quiet practice
• Available in polished ebony, polished ebony with chrome fittings, polished white, polished mahogany and polished walnut

Yamaha b3 upright piano

The top of the range b Series model, the b3 also benefits from a solid spruce soundboard, and shares many components with the professional level U Series models. Larger than the b1 and b2 at 121cm tall, the longer strings and more expansive soundboard of the b3 afford it a more powerful and expressive tone, with a more controlled and responsive action. An excellent choice for the home or school practice room and incredibly good value, the b3 makes for an interesting comparison with the Kawai K-300.

Key features:

• 121cm tall
• Traditional style cabinet
• Solid spruce soundboard
• Castors
• Bespoke hammers shared with the Japanese-made Yamaha U1
• 88 keys & 3 pedals including celeste for quiet practice
• Available in polished ebony, polished ebony with chrome fittings, polished white, polished mahogany and polished walnut
