One thing Piano Tan notice is that the pin of USX series are made of nickel plated (Stainless) steel to resist rush where US series are mostly nickel cut pin. The Kawai US6X offers great value to a player who wants a piano with a rich full sound. The height of the US6X is responsible for a full rich tone.
