Product details
The Full-Scale B Series Upright—Built for Greater Musical Authority.
Standing 121 cm high, the Yamaha B30 is the standard-size and most substantial model in the new-generation B Series. Its larger cabinet and acoustic scale give advancing pianists, teachers and institutions stronger projection, a richer bass foundation and greater headroom for demanding repertoire.
Newly developed B Series hammers, a redesigned soundboard and longer bass strings create a focused yet spacious Yamaha voice. Five structural back posts and a V-Pro frame reinforce the piano under string tension, while the precision action delivers the predictable control needed for disciplined practice, teaching and expressive performance.
Signature Features
Full-Scale 121 cm B Series Design
As the largest standard acoustic model in the range, the B30 offers greater soundboard area and cabinet volume for stronger projection, tonal depth and dynamic authority.
New-Generation B Series Hammers
Specially developed hammer felt draws on knowledge gained through Yamaha’s CFX concert-grand development, producing a focused, resonant voice that keeps melodic lines clear across the keyboard.
Redesigned Soundboard
The new soundboard is engineered for clear, spacious resonance. Its carefully formed crown converts string energy efficiently and helps the compact cabinet breathe with a natural acoustic response.
Longer Bass Strings
An optimised bass-string scale supports stronger pitch stability and a richer low-register foundation, creating a more balanced transition from bass to treble.
Five-Post Structural Support
Five back posts reinforce the cabinet and help preserve the soundboard crown against string tension, supporting long-term stability and consistent resonance.
Precision Yamaha Action
Accurately machined action components are carefully assembled for a smooth, predictable touch that supports developing technique, dynamic control and confident repetition.
Full-Length Music Stand
The redesigned wide stand runs across the fallboard, providing generous support for multiple scores, large books or unfolding music, with a deep non-slip surface for added stability.
Soft-Close Fallboard
A built-in soft-close mechanism allows the key cover to descend gently, adding convenience and reassurance in busy homes, studios and teaching environments.
