This 2000 Yamaha U1 is a standout example of why Puget Sound–local pianos are so sought after. Having lived its entire life in our mild, stable climate, it has enjoyed ideal conditions with none of the extremes that cause premature wear. Pianos simply age better here — and this U1 shows it.

Owned by a retired player who used it gently, the piano has very low playing hours and no signs of heavy practice or hard use. It includes its original bench, original manual, and keys for the fallboard lock. The serial number has been verified: this is not a gray‑market import.

This model features Yamaha’s slow‑close fallboard, the middle‑pedal practice mute, and the classic U1 action known for its consistency, responsiveness, and reliability.

Exceptional Value Compared to New

A brand‑new Yamaha U1 in 2026 lists for around $12,000, and even a 20% sale price still lands close to $10,000. This gently‑used, Puget Sound‑local U1 offers the same musical experience at a fraction of that cost — with several valuable extras included.

Included With This Piano

• 5‑year warranty

• Basic humidity control system (over $400 value)

• First in‑home tuning after delivery

• Local moving starting at $200

Professionally inspected and prepared, this U1 is an ideal choice for students, advancing players, teachers, and anyone seeking Yamaha’s legendary reliability in a piano that has been gently loved and perfectly housed.
