Yamaha B20 Silent Upright Piano SC3

The Yamaha B20 Silent Upright Piano SC3 combines the fuller acoustic sound of the 116cm B20 with the flexibility of Yamaha’s advanced Silent Piano technology. It is an ideal choice for families, students and adult players who want the richness of an acoustic upright with the option of private headphone practice.

At its core, the B20 Silent remains a genuine acoustic Yamaha piano. The taller cabinet, carefully developed soundboard and improved hammer design create a warm, resonant tone with greater projection than more compact models in the range.

When Silent mode is engaged, Yamaha’s SC3 system allows the pianist to practise through headphones while preserving the natural feel of the acoustic action. This makes the B20 Silent particularly well suited to modern homes, shared spaces and households where practice flexibility is important.

Practical details such as the full-width music desk and soft-close fallboard make the B20 enjoyable to use every day, while Yamaha’s precision manufacturing provides lasting reliability and tuning stability.

Available in Black Polish and White Polish finishes, with a choice of Brass or Chrome fittings.
