Yamaha U1

Post by Kay »

I'm looking to purchase a Yamaha U1, the seller gave me a serial number of 721462737. Do you know how old is this piano?

Are you sure about that number ? Could it be?
1462737 which would date it at c1971 if it was made in Japan Were there any letter before the number like E

Barrie,

I have not seen the piano yet, the lady just gave me this number over the phone. She did mentioned that it's about 30 years old. She is selling it at 2500 pounds, do you think this is a good deal?
