🎹 Yamaha YUS Series — The Upright That Doesn’t Make You Suffer
The Yamaha YUS 1, 3, and 5 series are instruments that never make you struggle — every note feels natural, every phrase effortless.
When I first played the YUS1, I immediately fell in love with it. The touch control and richness of tone were in perfect harmony — a rare balance I’ve only experienced before on fine rebuilt Bechstein grand pianos.
I often wondered what makes the YUS series so distinctive. The best explanation I’ve found is that after Yamaha acquired Bösendorfer, they began using European tonewoods and incorporated elements of Bösendorfer’s design philosophy into their own instruments.
The result is remarkable — a YUS upright that stands shoulder to shoulder with far more expensive European pianos such as Blüthner or Bechstein, yet remains far more affordable.
In my view, it surpasses brands like Petrof in both tonal beauty and craftsmanship.
If you are searching for an upright piano that truly sings — responsive, resonant, and inspiring — the YUS1/3/5 series might just be the perfect companion for your musical journey.
