In this guide, we will explore the new models, compare the Yamaha b10, b20 and b30, explain why Yamaha upright pianos are so highly respected, and help you decide which piano may be right for you.
What Is the Yamaha B Series?
The Yamaha B Series is Yamaha’s range of affordable acoustic upright pianos, designed to bring genuine Yamaha craftsmanship to more homes and musicians.
These pianos are known for combining:
- Excellent build quality
- Responsive keyboard touch
- Warm, clear tone
- Elegant upright cabinet styling
- Strong tuning stability
- Superb value for money
For many families and teachers, the Yamaha B Series is the perfect introduction to acoustic piano ownership.
The new 2026 models - B10, B20 & B30 - continue that tradition while giving players three clear choices depending on budget, space and musical ambitions.
Why Buy an Acoustic Upright Piano?
Many customers visit Rimmers Music after starting on a keyboard or digital piano and then deciding they are ready for the real thing.
There is a genuine difference when you sit at an acoustic upright piano.
You feel the natural movement of the action, hear the resonance of real strings and experience a dynamic range that encourages expressive playing. Practising on an acoustic piano can also help students develop touch, finger control and musical sensitivity.
A Yamaha upright piano is not simply an instrument. It often becomes part of the home, a focal point in the room and something the whole family can enjoy.
Meet the New Yamaha B10, B20 & B30
Yamaha has created three models within the new B Series so that customers can choose the right piano for their needs.
Yamaha B10 - Compact, Affordable and Ideal for Beginners

- Beginners
- Children starting lessons
- Families buying their first acoustic piano
- Homes where space is limited
- Players moving up from a keyboard or digital piano
The B10 offers the dependable Yamaha touch and tone in a compact cabinet that fits comfortably into many modern homes.
If you want a genuine acoustic piano without needing a large footprint, the Yamaha b10 is a superb place to begin.

It offers:

The Yamaha B30 sits at the top of the new B Series range.
