Serial number: B1764620. This piano was manufactured in Japan in 1974. This is possibly one of the most beautiful Yamaha piano designs produced: this Console model has the attractiveness of a Spinet but all the advantages of a taller Yamaha piano. They are extremely scarce and, as far as we’re aware, were produced in limited numbers.
This piano has a walnut casing of a dark brown stain and has its matching original stool. The condition is unbelievable. The seller said she had treasured it and it didn’t have a mark on it. In our excitement at being able to purchase such a rare Yamaha we simply made an offer over the phone, taking our chances, but when it arrived, we were amazed that indeed she was correct.
The tone is typical of an older Yamaha in being lively but has a richness and no tinny tones, something quite special. It has 88 keys of a medium to slightly heavier touch weight, and 3 pedals with a sostenuto rail. The dimensions of this piano are a height of 107 cm, width of 143.5 cm and a depth of 60.6 cm.
The DE 703 Yamaha Upright Pianoforte and stool was sold during September 2021.
