Erm just a little confuse about what's the difference between u1, u1j, u1G and U1H? ( Is the G or H thing means where r they made from?)
they represent different versions which include different scaling, construction and cosmetics. yeah.... they pretty confusing to consumers also dealers.... another maker from Japan, Kawai used to have even more models for a similar height piano. not only it is confusing to consumers but even to their own distributors.. today, many farny models number/prefix have been consolidated and easy to be recongnized.... then again there are still models which are confusing to consumers. most of the time the model(s) of a similar size represent different scaling, construction and cosmetics, as stated above.Added on April 12, 2010, 9:02 am

How can i differentiate where r they made from example from japan and Indonesia ?
(whats the code for japan made pianos ?)
with prefix J such as JU, JX, U1J => Indonesia(whats the code for japan made pianos ?)
before taiwan factory was closed with prefix YT => Taoyuan Hsien Taiwan (also applies to prefix M and P)
with prefix T => cabinet from Taiwan and assembly in USA (taiwan factory is ady closed. with prefix P from Thomaston)
with prefix M, P and T => Thomaston USA. However in 2007 Thomaston factory is also closed.
without prefix as above U1 = Japan
with prefix H = Hangzhou in China (also applies to prefix CN, P and T)
