Yamaha U3 with ABEL Bio hammer heads

Properties

Description

A proven classic has become a unique sonic masterpiece that is truly one of a kind. A Yamaha U3 is, for many pianists, the epitome of a reliable piano: precisely built, powerful in tone with a height of 131 cm, and featuring an action that has set standards for decades. However, I have turned this 1983 instrument into something entirely unique. Completely overhauled in my workshop: The entire instrument has been carefully overhauled by me in my workshop. This ensures you receive a piano you can rely on for many years to come. The centerpiece: Organic hammer heads from Abel: The hammer heads are the point where mechanics turn into sound. With every strike, they hit the strings, and their felt determines whether a note sounds hard and sharp or warm and round. That is why I focused specifically on this part of the instrument and replaced the original hammer heads with organic hammer heads from the traditional German manufacturer Abel. Yamaha pianos are known for their clear, brilliant tone. With the Abel hammers, this U3 shows a completely different side: the sound is calm, warm, and romantic, with a singing treble and a deep, round bass. Especially when playing softly, a timbre unfolds that one would not expect from a Yamaha and that invites you to linger. However, new hammer heads alone do not make a beautiful sound. Only careful adjustment to the instrument brings out the best in them. I took on this work myself with plenty of time and careful listening, note by note. Regulated by a master's hand: I have fully regulated the action and specifically adjusted the dynamics. The result is a playing feel that reacts finely and precisely to every nuance, from the softest pianissimo to a full forte. A true one-of-a-kind piece: Japanese precision, German tonal warmth, and my craftsmanship as a master piano maker: a proven classic has become an instrument that is truly one of a kind.
