Making the call

Is The UX-3 Right For You?

Read both. The second list is the one that saves people money.

Choose the UX-3 if

  • You want the closest thing to a grand that still stands against a wall
  • The player is preparing for practical exams or teaches at home
  • You have the floor space and the access to take a large upright

Look at something else if

  • There is no service lift and the piano has to go upstairs
  • The room is small, where a big instrument mostly produces reverberation
  • Nobody in the house plays beyond early grades yet
Sound and size

What The UX-3 Sounds Like

This is as close as an upright gets to a grand in the bass. It also needs a room that can take that much sound.

Set against the Yamaha U1H, the most commonly sold used Yamaha here, it is 10 cm taller and 25 kg heavier. Near the top of the weight range, which runs from 180 kg up to 254 kg.

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

242 kg is getting heavy. In a lift it is routine, up a staircase it becomes a planned job. 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

We do not guess about individual instruments. Ask what was replaced on the UX-3 you are looking at and we will tell you, serial number included.

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.

Rent First. The Rent Becomes Credit.

For families not yet sure the lessons will stick. Rent a restored piano monthly, and if you keep it, everything paid comes off the price.

Where The UX-3 Sits In The Range

X-braced backs and heavier build than the U line at the same height. More power than the dimensions suggest, and still an upright.

Questions

Yamaha UX-3: What People Ask

How big is the Yamaha UX-3?

131 cm tall, 154 cm wide, 65 cm deep, and about 242 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.

Will a UX-3 fit my place?

You need about 1.6 m of wall and roughly 1.1 m². 242 kg is getting heavy. In a lift it is routine, up a staircase it becomes a planned job. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.

Is a used UX-3 a safe buy?

We do not guess about individual instruments. Ask what was replaced on the UX-3 you are looking at and we will tell you, serial number included. There is a five-year warranty behind it, and we are the ones who service it.

Can I rent a UX-3 instead?

Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a UX-3 specifically. Ask what is free now. Nothing paid in rent is wasted if you decide to keep the piano.

Do you have a UX-3 in stock?

Ask, because it changes week to week. If we do not have one, we will say so and tell you what is close on size and weight.

How often does a UX-3 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.
