A particularly rare variant of the ever-popular Yamaha U1, this elegant upright was produced in limited numbers at Yamaha's former Kemble factory in the UK, where British craftsmanship was combined with Yamaha's world-renowned engineering and meticulous quality standards.
Presented in a beautiful satin cherry veneer with polished brass fittings, it offers a distinctive alternative to the ubiquitous black finish, bringing warmth and character to any interior. Musically, the UK-built U1Z is admired for its refined, slightly warmer European tonal character, while retaining the exceptional touch, responsiveness and reliability that have made the Yamaha U1 one of the world's most respected upright pianos.
Having been privately owned and carefully maintained, this piano has seen only light domestic use and remains in superb mechanical and cosmetic condition. It represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly desirable and increasingly scarce real-wood Yamaha upright—an instrument equally at home in the family living room, teaching studio or professional practice environment, and one that will provide many years of musical enjoyment.
