Making the call

Is The U3E Right For You?

Full height playing without the most searched name.

Choose the U3E if

You want 131 cm bass and the access to match
A serious student or a teacher is using it
You are open on generation

Look at something else if

The piano is going upstairs without a lift
The room is too small to carry the sound

Sound and size

What The U3E Sounds Like

Proper bass weight and a clear top. It is the point where an upright stops apologising for not being a grand.

The E sits comfortably within the U3 line and shares its scale exactly. It comes up less often than the H, which occasionally works in a buyer's favour.

Yamaha is the brighter and quicker of the two, which is why exam candidates keep asking for one. Some players find the treble tiring over long sessions. Neither is better. Play both, which you can do on one floor at the shop.

Room and access

Will it get in?

Space: about 1.6 m of wall
Floor: roughly 1.1 m²
Case width 154 cm, depth 65 cm
Access: Service lift

248 kg, so a lift makes this simple and stairs make it a project. The case is 65 cm deep, which is more than most. Measure the doorway rather than assuming it will turn.

Buying it used

What You Are Actually Buying

Full height uprights are often ex institutional. Ask where it came from, because a school piano and a home piano wear very differently.

The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do.

Our rent-to-own programme

Rent First. The Rent Becomes Credit.

If you are not ready to commit, rent one by the month. Decide to keep it and the rent you have paid comes off the purchase price.

Questions

Yamaha U3E: What People Ask

How big is the Yamaha U3E?

131 cm tall, 154 cm wide, 65 cm deep, and about 248 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.

Will a U3E fit my place?

You need about 1.6 m of wall and roughly 1.1 m². 248 kg, so a lift makes this simple and stairs make it a project. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.

Is a used U3E a safe buy?

Full height uprights are often ex institutional. Ask where it came from, because a school piano and a home piano wear very differently. There is a five-year warranty behind it, and we are the ones who service it.

Can I rent a U3E instead?

Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a U3E specifically. Ask what is free now. Nothing paid in rent is wasted if you decide to keep the piano.

Do you have a U3E in stock?

Ask, because it changes week to week. If nothing suits, we will tell you that too.

How often does a U3E need tuning in Malaysia?

Twice a year. The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do. We include the two tunings it needs after moving.
