Dear Mr. Roberts. I really respect your work by sharing your wisdom and experience in This YouTube. Although I really do not see any point by comparing proceed in China Feurich 122 Universal with fully German made C. Bechstein Premium piano to Yamaha U3H late '70 piano. Tree of those upright pianos represent huge difference technology approach, strongly caused both by historical period and economic value. Please forgive me for this comparison but It's very like comparing Chinese made Volvo with Rolls Royce Phantom with Toyota Corolla form year 1985. Three of those cars can drive but, mostly thats it.

Bechstein is more expensive. If you're going to compare a Yamaha a better representation for Yamaha is the SE or SU7 premium uprights, otherwise, it's in a totally different market. Bechstein's Hoffmann might be a more suitable comparison but I think they still run more expensive than the U Yamaha series. For the money, the Fuerich is fine and the Yamaha is not German and won't sound German or European unless you get the SE. For the type of all-round playing and consistency over years, the Yamaha is pretty much the standard for high-quality but semi-affordable uprights in the U. If you want cheap, then the B series is Yamaha's budget line. The Bechstein is in the luxury class of pianos, it more is cross shopped against the Bosendorfer or Bluthners.

This piano has the gorgeously clear and lovely tone that I appreciate so much in Bluethner pianos. This must be just about the most beautiful sounding upright piano of the current century!

I've recently gone for a Feurich 122 after years of a Yamaha U3. Taking some getting used to but I'm enjoying it. Mine's a new 2019, so I'll be interested to see how it feels after bedding in properly. How long do you recommend before it's first tune?

Excellent video, as always. I'm curious--what's your opinion on modern Bechstein uprights like this one compared to similar modern uprights from other top makes like Blüthner or Bösendorfer?

Yamaha has always been too bright and percussive for my taste. I actually prefer the Feurich's softer tone, but both it and theBechstein are sounding great.
