Sitting above the compact B10 in Yamaha’s latest B Series range, the B20 gives players greater depth, projection and musical expression while still remaining practical for modern homes, teaching studios and family living spaces.

With its 116cm cabinet, the Yamaha B20 delivers a fuller and more resonant sound than smaller entry-level upright pianos. It is an excellent choice for progressing students, returning players, families, teachers and anyone looking for a high-quality Yamaha acoustic piano with more tonal presence and long-term musical potential.

Finished in polished ebony with chrome fittings, this version combines the timeless elegance of a gloss black upright piano with a clean, modern edge. The deep black cabinet gives the instrument a premium presence, while the chrome fittings create a sleek, stylish contrast that works beautifully in contemporary interiors.

Why Choose the Yamaha B20 Upright Piano?

The Yamaha B20 is designed for players who want more from their acoustic piano. Compared with the smaller B10, the B20 offers a taller cabinet, greater soundboard area and longer bass strings, helping to produce a richer, warmer and more powerful tone.

This makes it a superb choice for students moving beyond the early stages, families looking for a long-term acoustic piano, and home players who want an upright piano that feels expressive, responsive and rewarding to play every day.

The B20 keeps the clarity, consistency and reliability Yamaha upright pianos are known for, while adding extra depth, projection and musical character.

A Step Up in Tone, Depth and Projection

At 116cm tall, the Yamaha B20 gives players a more substantial acoustic experience than a smaller compact upright. Its larger cabinet helps create a fuller tone, with a stronger bass, a clearer treble and a wider dynamic range.

For developing players, this is a real advantage. The B20 responds well to expressive playing, allowing students and home musicians to explore phrasing, touch, tone colour and dynamics with greater confidence.

Whether you are playing classical music, graded exam pieces, jazz, pop arrangements or daily practice exercises, the Yamaha B20 offers a balanced and inspiring acoustic sound that encourages musical progress.

Designed for Progressing Students and Long-Term Learning

The Yamaha B20 is suitable for beginners, but it is especially strong for players who want a piano they can grow into. Its 88-key acoustic upright piano action helps students develop proper finger strength, control and expression from the start.

The smooth and consistent Yamaha action gives players the response they need for confident practice, while the larger cabinet provides a more satisfying tone as their playing develops.

For families, the B20 is a strong long-term investment. It is not simply a starter piano. It is a genuine Yamaha acoustic upright designed to support years of lessons, practice, exams and musical enjoyment.

Yamaha B Series Craftsmanship

The new Yamaha B Series has been developed to offer dependable acoustic piano performance in a compact and elegant upright design. Every detail of the B20 is designed to support tone, touch, stability and everyday usability.

The B20 features Yamaha B Series Special hammers for clarity and sustain, a redesigned soundboard for improved resonance, and five back posts for strength and tonal support. The V-Pro frame adds structural stability, helping the piano maintain tuning stability and long-term reliability.

The result is an upright piano that feels solid, musical and beautifully controlled — exactly what many players expect from a Yamaha acoustic piano.

Polished Ebony Cabinet with Chrome Fittings

The Yamaha B20 in Polished Ebony with chrome fittings offers a stylish modern twist on the classic black upright piano. The polished ebony cabinet gives the piano a deep gloss finish and a refined, premium appearance, while the chrome fittings add a clean, contemporary look.

This finish is ideal for customers who want the elegance of a black upright piano but prefer a more modern aesthetic than traditional brass. The chrome detail works especially well in contemporary homes, apartments, studios, music rooms and interior-led living spaces.

The result is a piano that looks sophisticated without feeling old-fashioned — a beautiful centrepiece for the home and a serious musical instrument for daily playing.

Compact Enough for Home, Powerful Enough to Inspire

Although the Yamaha B20 offers more tonal depth than the smaller B10, it remains a practical size for home use. Its 116cm height gives the piano more presence and projection, while its compact footprint makes it suitable for living rooms, practice rooms, apartments, schools and teaching studios.

This makes the B20 a particularly strong choice for customers who want a richer acoustic piano sound without moving up to a larger upright piano.

For many players, the Yamaha B20 is the ideal middle ground: more expressive than the B10, more compact than the B30, and beautifully suited to everyday home playing.

Practical Features for Everyday Playing

The Yamaha B20 includes a wide, full-length music rest, giving players plenty of space for larger music books, exam pieces, duet scores and modern sheet music. This is especially useful for students, teachers and anyone working with larger scores.

The soft-close fallboard gently lowers the key cover, helping protect fingers and adding a smoother, safer feel to everyday use.

With three pedals — damper, muffler and soft — the B20 gives players the essential control needed for expressive acoustic playing, while also offering a quieter practice option when required.
