Begin by deciding which type of piano you want. Then test the tone and touch, inspect the actual instrument, and assess the installation space before deciding.
Three main paths within this budget
This range is not simply about buying a more expensive upright. It is where buyers can begin choosing among a new grand piano, a higher-model Yamaha upright, and a pre-owned Japanese Yamaha grand piano.
CLASSIC GPX-152
A new 152 cm grand piano. The black finish has a special cash price of THB 198,000, while other finishes are slightly above THB 200,000.
Reconditioned Yamaha
Depending on stock and the condition of each instrument, options range from the U-3M, U-3A, YUX, UX-3 and UX-30BL through to the U-300.
Yamaha G-2
A pre-owned Japanese grand piano priced at THB 295,000 for buyers who want a Yamaha grand within a THB 300,000 budget.
Note: Models, prices, promotions and available inventory may change. Confirm the current information with the team before arranging a playing test.
The new CLASSIC GPX-152 grand piano is a useful starting point
The GPX-152 is a new 152 cm grand piano. The black finish has a special discounted cash price of THB 198,000, so it remains an option worth testing even when the buyer's budget has moved into the THB 200,000–300,000 range.
A grand piano's horizontal action provides a different key return and response from an upright. Test the instrument in person and measure the room, access route and delivery path before deciding.
Suitable for buyers who want a new grand piano while keeping the budget close to THB 200,000.
Allow for the 152 cm piano length, as well as the player's seating position and usable space around the instrument.

Reconditioned Yamaha upright: this budget reaches higher models
This range includes a variety of reconditioned Yamaha uprights, from the U-3M and U-3A through to the YUX, UX-3, UX-30BL and U-300, as well as the wood-finish W-106. Do not choose by model name or price alone, because every pre-owned piano has a different history and condition.
U-3 group: Test the size, tone, response and actual condition of each instrument.
YUX / UX group: Suitable for buyers ready to move beyond the U3 and test models with higher specifications.
Wood-finish W-106: Consider the preferred cabinet finish together with tone quality and exterior condition.
U-300: Another option near the top of the budget; test it alongside UX models and grand pianos.
Yamaha G-2: a pre-owned Japanese grand piano within THB 300,000
For buyers who specifically want a Yamaha grand piano, a Yamaha G-2 priced at THB 295,000 currently fits this budget. Look beyond the model name by inspecting the structure, soundboard, keyboard action, hammers, reconditioning work and the history of that individual piano.
Measure the installation space, corridors, doors and delivery route before arranging delivery.
Test the tone and touch of the actual instrument because every pre-owned grand piano has its own character.
Compare it with a new grand piano at a similar price to understand the differences in action, condition and after-sales support.
Should you begin with a new grand, a higher-model Yamaha upright or a Yamaha grand?

| A new grand piano | Test the CLASSIC GPX-152, then assess the space, delivery requirements and total budget. |
| A higher-model Yamaha upright | Test the U-3, YUX, UX-3, UX-30BL and U-300 actual instruments. |
| A Yamaha grand piano | Consider the Yamaha G-2 and inspect its condition, reconditioning work and the readiness of the installation space. |
| Long-term use | Play every relevant option, then assess the learning plan, space, delivery requirements and after-sales support together. |
