Beautiful Yamaha U3 upright piano 2,500


Recommended Posts

Reluctant sale due to house work and

renovations.


I'm currently selling my beautiful U3 Yamaha

piano. I've owned it personally since 1993.

It's a beautiful instrument with a beautiful sound

as well as a lovely piece of furniture.

This particular U3 was manufactured in Japan as

was made in 1975, you will be able to see online

or by contacting a piano dealer that this is a

well known generation for its quality of

manufacturing.


If you'd like to research online prices of the U3

upright range from between ?3,500 - ?10,000 as

they are the preferred models used by professional pianists rather than the U1 or other models.


Mine has a few small scratches from being

moved around over the last few years which are purely cosmetic and reflected in the price- it is otherwise in perfect condition. The U3 is a perfect instrument for someone who hopes to reach a grade 8.


I've kept a hold of it as long as I can through

recent house moves and will be very sad to see it

go. I'm more than happy for people to come and

view if interested.


I don't have it photographed but I also have the stool included in the sale.

Please find below a few copied paragraphs from

Mark Goodwin Pianos which can easily be found

online which will advise you on why Yamaha may be the right choice for you.


Yamaha U3: 10 Reasons why it's a great choice


It is made in Japan,

It has been a popular choice for over 60

years,

It holds it's value

It is enjoyed by professional pianists

It is relied upon by music schools and piano teachers.

It has longer bass strings than baby grand

pianos

It is 131cm tall (tall is good!)

If properly reconditioned it will last a generation before needing further work

It looks good and sounds great

A new Yamaha U3 costs ?9000 but a professionally reconditioned one can be bought for less than half that amount.


Manufacturing is an art form in Japan which means build quality and quality control is consistently high.

    • Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.
    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
