Yamaha B3 48″ Upright Piano

Yamaha B3 Upright Piano

The Yamaha b3  piano is a 48 inch tall upright, it is the largest piano in the B Series.  Featuring a larger back post than the b2 & b1, a larger sound board, a piano hammer with underfelt, and a larger capstan, the b3 is a semi-professional piano at a great value.

A Great Foundation

Supported by five sturdy wooden back posts and a strong cast iron frame, b Series pianos are endowed with Yamaha’s renowned pure, clear tone.  The b3 features a larger back post than the rest of the b series.  Every Yamaha upright piano also features a full perimeter V-Pro plate.

B3 Piano Hammer

an underfelt hammer is added to the b3 to give the 48 inch tall upright a crisper, clearer tone.  This is a similar piano hammer to the Yamaha U1, which the b3 shares a large number of similar components of.  The b3 piano key shank features a taller capstan for a larger tonal range.
