The plot thickens. More of what I was looking for, thank you. Can you characterize the difference between the U1 and the U1J in terms of the overall structural differences, components, etc?

They used to make U1 in Taiwan too but the plant has closed a few years ago. Lim On Feb 24, 2013 8:16 AM, "David Love" <davidlovepianos at comcast.net> wrote: That's what I was referring to.

I can't get a straight answer. Any Yamaha dealers out there? Are new ones all the same manufacture? Are some of them Chinese manufacturing? Fill me in please.
