KAWAI PIANO

KAWAI UPRIGHT KU-2D

The action uses first generation composite action fully made by solid wood. Some may argue that millennium action (started since BL series, 4th gen)  is better than “composite” which is fully made of wood, but for technician like us, we know its not true. Although temperature, humidity can affects the stability of the action, we somehow find that wood is still the only material who last the longest. Generally, K48 is around 50 years old and you can still see the action & hammer looks totally new after we restored it. We only use original parts from Japan and restored everything meticulously to let the piano go back to their glorious day.

Kawai holds the principle of ” NO-NONSENSE” design, with a huge music desk which is adjustable, it as comfortable in playing long pieces, and something you cant take for granted on every pianos at this price point.

As for the middle and high pitch zone, its crystal clear tone is not too bright which is quite pleasant and lacking unwanted harshness. This results in a piano that does not become straining to the ears over hours of practice and performance. The K48 also has got the slightly longer keys like grand pianos so you will feel like you are actually playing a grand piano, heavier and more responsive. However, the touch can be adjusted by our master technician to suit your preference.
