Happy Labor Day!

We hope you get a chance to slow down, enjoy the long weekend, and spend a little extra time doing something you love. If that means sitting down at the piano for a while, even better.

A Yamaha Disklavier can create a live piano performance that fills the room, all without anyone sitting at the bench.

It can recreate recorded music or stream live performances on the acoustic piano itself, physically reproducing the movements as the music plays. You can also sit down and play it just like a traditional Yamaha acoustic piano or record your own performances and play them back.

If you’re a fan of piano music, it’s worth seeing a Disklavier in person.

The French Provincial styling gives this pre-owned Young Chang AF-108 a look you don’t see on every upright.

Built in 2011, its compact 43" cabinet makes it easy to place in a living room, apartment, or other space where a larger upright may not fit. The decorative legs and traditional cabinet design also give it extra personality.

The Yamaha U1 features a 48" cabinet that gives it the string length and soundboard area for a full, balanced sound. Coupled with Yamaha’s responsive action, it gives students and experienced pianists the control they need, while feeling rewarding to play.

It’s a professional upright that can support a player from early lessons through more advanced repertoire, making it a practical choice for homes, teaching studios, and practice spaces.

This pre-owned Yamaha Clavinova CLP-885 brings some of Yamaha’s most advanced technology together in a traditional upright-style digital piano.

Its GrandTouch keyboard features wooden keys and individually weighted hammers for a more nuanced playing experience. Yamaha CFX and Bösendorfer Imperial concert grand voices, Virtual Resonance Modeling, and a three-way speaker system add depth and detail to the sound.

As a late-model 2025 piano in mint condition, this CLP-885 is a great way to experience Yamaha’s top upright-style model in the current CLP Series.

If you’ve ever wondered how Yamaha ended up making two things as different as pianos and motorcycles, you’re not alone.

The story goes all the way back to the company’s beginnings as a musical instrument maker.

In 1954, Yamaha began prototyping its first motorcycle. The same people who cast piano frames were now building engine blocks.
