USED YAMAHA GRAND PIANOS
Our main used grand piano stock comprises fine quality Yamaha G2, C2, G3, C3, G5, C5 and C7 grand pianos. They are all in pristine condition (repolished as necessary), mostly made between 1965 and 1985 which is a period we consider to be the pinnacle of tone quality for Yamaha. All second hand piano prices include free delivery to ground floor within 60 miles from our shops and a 5 year guarantee.

Brief history of models and prices of Yamaha pianos:

It's from 1966 that we first see Yamaha pianos in Europe. These early models are the ones that sound the most like German pianos, with a good deep mellow tone throughout the range. They are more expensively constructed with top quality soundboards, excellent hammers, wooden pedal mechanisms on uprights and mostly wooden action parts. As the Korean and later the Chinese factories began to produce large numbers of pianos in competition with Yamaha, so the Yamaha piano started to be made more economically. Wooden parts were replaced by plastic or aluminium, though lately there has been a return to wooden action flanges. The tone also started to lack the rich depth that it previously had. The gradual brightening of tone is evident until about 1990, when Yamaha brought out what they called a hand-built piano, grands starting at £28,000 and uprights at £7,699. Yamaha now operate a two-tier system with top quality pianos made in Japan and their basic and mid-range grands and uprights made in Indonesia, the UK and elsewhere. For more information click here

We've been selling used imported Yamahas for over 20 years. Our current agent in Japan used to manage Yamaha Europa G.m.b.H., German subsidiary, and we visit him in Japan regularly to keep a check on quality. They are always barely used, and the case and loops are checked and repaired if necessary in Japan before shipping, also the bass strings are replaced if they have lost their tone. We then finely regulate and tune them, and guarantee them for 5 years.
