Piano Hammer – B3
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.
