Each wooden key pivots smoothly on a balance pin – the ends rising and falling to replicate the familiar ‘seesaw’ motion of an acoustic piano action. When pressed, the back of the key lifts, triggering a grade-weighted hammer to strike a pressure switch.

The SK-EX has frequently been selected by professional pianists at such prestigious events as the Chopin, Tchaikovsky, and Rubinstein international piano competitions. With its magnificent tone and wonderfully responsive touch, the SK-EX can best be described with one word – incomparable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to faithfully reproduce the stunning sound of a Shigeru Kawai concert grand piano digitally, Kawai has developed SK-EX Rendering.

This unique audio technology embraces the rich, harmonic qualities of wood by using improved transducers to channel sound energy onto a large soundboard, in order to produce a more natural, organic tone. Long wooden ribs securely attached to the soundboard further broaden the frequency range and volume of the resonating sound, resulting in a remarkably authentic playing experience that immerses both the performer and the listener, and faithfully reproduces the tonal ambience of an acoustic piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TwinDrive system incorporates the third generation of Kawai’s soundboard technology and features an upgraded primary transducer to deliver more power and range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, an upgraded secondary transducer, mounted towards the treble end of the instrument, helps to further expand the tonal range produced by the soundboard beyond the existing low frequencies, allowing mid-low and even mid-high ranges to also benefit from the warming, acoustic properties of wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHE ADVANTAGE OF A DIGITAL PIANO: CONVENIENCE \u0026amp; VERSATILITY\u003cbr\u003eComplementing the instrument’s industry-leading Grand Feel III keyboard action and stunning SK-EX Rendering piano sound engine, the CA901 also offers a strong selection of digital features that further enhance one’s musical enjoyment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImproved Bluetooth® v5 connectivity and USB audio record\/playback allows musicians to extend the functionality of their piano, or play-along with their favorite artists.

This extended key pivot length results in a more consistent touch weight when playing towards the back of the keyboard, affording the pianist greater expressive control, and allowing one’s imagination to soar freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, the GX Series’ advanced Millennium III keyboard action incorporates the latest materials; combining ABS resin with carbon fibre to further improve one’s playing experience. This ABS-Carbon compound is both highly rigid and extremely lightweight – characteristics that have seen the same material successfully employed throughout the\u003cbr\u003eaeronautics industry as a superior alternative to wood. By utilising action parts fashioned from ABS-Carbon, the GX Series’ keyboard action is more durable and less prone to performance degradation over time, while also delivering improved responsiveness and control. This evolution in keyboard touch can be experienced by the pianist with every key stroke, from the first to the very last note played.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to produce Kawai’s special tone, a broad range of woods are meticulously analysed for quality and character, before being selected as the finest materials for each specific purpose. The soundboard has arguably the most significant influence over a piano’s individual tonal elements. Therefore, woods that conform to the most rigorous gravity and propagation velocity standards are carefully selected by experienced craftsmen in order to achieve rich, deep bass tones, and bright, colourful, sustaining treble tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the soundboard, bridges, and ribs, optimum materials for the inner-rim are also carefully considered, combining the unique properties of different hardwoods to create a layered hybrid construction. This produces a broad range of sound, allowing even greater expressive power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to produce a richer, more imersive sound, the overall rigidity of the GX instruments’ body has also been improved. The thickness of the upper beam that attaches to the outer-rim is increased, allowing the pin blocks to support a tensile strength load of approximately 20 tons. As the tone of each note is improved, the sense of three-dimensional sound is also enhanced. Moreover, increasing the rigidity of the piano’s brass tuning pins further strengthens the instrument’s tuning stability, thus meeting the rigorous demands of the pianist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn order to realise the pianist’s infinite range of expression, the GX Series utilises premium grand piano hammers. These hammers are constructed from wood that possesses excellent acoustic properties, with hammer felt prepared from the finest quality long-haired New Zealand and Australian wool. These felted hammers have a soft, delicate exterior, yet are tight and rigid on the inside. When playing pianissimo passages, the strings are struck by the delicate exterior felt of the hammer to produce a soft and gentle tone, while fortissimo passages utilise the tighter, harder interior felt, thus producing a louder, more powerful sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoreover, all hammers are under-felted in order to further improve their resilience. These steps allow experienced piano technicians to perform the most subtle of voicing adjustments in order to maximise the instrument’s exquisite sonic potential. Delivering a broad range of tonal colour from pianissimo to fortissimo, and a rich variety of musical expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe instrument’s duplex scale system further enhances the harmonics of middle and upper-range tones, adding depth and breadth to the overall sound. And to ensure the ultimate touch at the keyboard surface – that magical point where the pianist and the piano become one – all GX instruments adopt premium Neotex coating for white and black keys. This unique material possesses moisture absorbent characteristics to enhance touch control and prevent mistakes, and inspires a sense of reassuring satisfaction within the pianist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreserving the treasured design of a grand piano, while pursuing new details of elegance – this is the design concept of the GX Series. The instrument’s exterior design, with its gentle curves and broad music rest, establishing the traditional characteristics and captivating form of a grand piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpanding the instrument’s upper-beam thickness not only reinforces the piano’s overall structural rigidity, but also serves to further distinguish this exterior design, with Kawai’s highly prized painting and finishing process affording the piano body its distinctive, luxurious ebony polish appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, the beauty of the GX Series truly shines upon opening the instrument’s top-board. The mesmerising brilliance of the glowing golden frame, the delicate woodwork and abundant expression of quality displayed along the inner rim, the luxurious elegance of rich black felt, and the reassuring display of hand-made craftsmanship – verified by the Kawai frame mark. These are the characteristics that embody the spirit of ‘THE GRAND’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, the GX Series instruments feature useful mechanisms such as multi-angle piano lid props, and Kawai’s original ‘Soft Fall’ system, which closes the fallboard gently and slowly, protecting the player’s hands from jarring lid accidents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKawai GX-2\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e180cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e152cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e102cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e324kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNumber of keys\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e88 keys (7¼ octave)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey surfaces\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeoTex\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMillennium III\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHammer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew GX hammer with reinforced hammer shank\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePedals\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3, including sostenuto\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusic Rack\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustable to five angles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFallboard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftfall system\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasters\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSingle caster\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStretcher Over-Lap Integrated Design (SOLID)\u003cbr\u003eLonger Keys\u003cbr\u003eSteel-reinforced keyslip \u0026amp; keybed\u003cbr\u003eV-pro plate\u003cbr\u003eCORE system\u003cbr\u003eVertically laminated treble bridge\u003cbr\u003eHybrid inner rim \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Kawai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44431149006941,"sku":"930023000108","price":36095.25,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/8179\/7213\/files\/gx-2.jpg?v=1778348607"},{"product_id":"shigeru-kawai-sk3l","title":"Shigeru Kawai SK3L 188 cm Handcrafted Grand Piano (SK-3L)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMillennium III action ABS-Carbon Japanese Ezo spruce soundboard Exclusive Shiko Seion hammers Temaki bass strings Hand notched, reduced mass bridges Premium aged Matoa inner rim 12 month seasoned plates Concert style, dual pivot damper system Every element of the Shigeru Kawai is made from the finest materials available to create its musical power and distinctive voice.

While our nine decades of experience and tradition have enabled the creation of remarkable touch and tone for today, it is our celebrated technology that powerfully preserves and sustains that outstanding touch and tone for tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis innovative spirit is the essence of Kawai — and the principal reason why we remain a generation ahead in providing exceptional performance that endures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe revolutionary Millennium III upright action is the secret behind the ultra-responsive touch of the K Series upright pianos. Introduced in 2006, the Millennium III upright action features components made of ABS Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fibre into our renowned ABS Styran. ABS Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, which allows the creation of action parts that are lighter without sacrificing strength.\u003cbr\u003eABS Carbon is many times stronger than wood and is virtually impervious to shrinking and swelling due to humidity. This extraordinary combination of strength and stability allows ABS Carbon action parts to transfer energy to the hammers with unparalleled efficiency, power, precision and nuance for a superb playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most coveted attributes of a fine piano is dynamic range – the ability to play not only thundering fortissimos, but also the most delicate and sensitive pianissimos. Longer keys make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface, benefitting the player with greater control and more power with less effort.\u003cbr\u003eOur exclusive NEOTEX key surface material made with cellulose fibre offers the smooth, understated texture of natural ivory and ebony – and a semi-porous, silica-filled surface to absorb the hand’s natural oils and perspiration that can cause slipping. NEOTEX resists cracking and fading over years of use, and is used for both the sharps and the naturals for a consistent feel across the entire keyboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straight-grained, quarter-sawn solid spruce for K Series soundboards. Each soundboard is strategically tapered to maximize its tone producing capability. Only those that meet or exceed our demanding quality standards are selected for use in our professional upright pianos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piano’s soundboard is placed under tension to create a slight curvature – or crown – that dramatically increases the production of sound. K Series pianos feature full-length ribs that are securely notched into the rim liner on all sides to preserve the soundboard crown over time. The ribs also distribute sound energy more evenly across the soundboard to optimise its tone-producing capabilities. Contour bars reshape the speaking area of the soundboard to resemble the contour of a grand piano soundboard, while reflecting sound energy back into the centre for increased tonal power and sustain.\u003cbr\u003eAll K Series hammers are T-stapled to preserve hammer shape, and fitted with an added interior layer of underfelt to support the creation of exceptional tone. Bridges transfer the vibrations of the strings to the soundboard. K Series bridges are made from select hard maple, individually notched for a clear, powerful tone quality. Height is carefully set and matched to the iron plate for correct string pressure and optimal tonal transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strength of a well-crafted instrument makes the piano one of the most impressive examples of technology, engineering and craftsmanship in the world today. K series professional upright pianos are designed with tremendous strength to ensure stability of tone and touch over time. On all K Series models, the soundboard is supported by exceptionally strong multi-layered back posts and our proprietary “matched strength” iron plate. Using state-of-the-art CAD technology, we calibrate the strength and mass of the plate to match the scale design of each individual model, while plate bolts strengthen the connection between the plate and back posts for greater stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piano’s keybed must be strong and stable to support the action assembly, and maintain action regulation over years of heavy use. K Series keybeds are made with sturdy laminated hardwoods and reinforced by rear braces on the iron frame that help to ensure stable placement and add rigidity to prevent energy loss. Furthermore, the keyslip – the long, horizontal piece of wood that covers the front faces of the keys – is reinforced with a heavy-gauge steel angle iron to prevent warping or bending in any direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe multi-grip pinblock on all K Series pianos is multi-laminated with a minimum of eleven cross-banded layers of North American hard maple for maximum strength and consistent torque, and K Series tuning pins are made from the finest steel, machine-threaded for maximum bi-directional torque and nickel plated to enhance beauty and provide long-term protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K Series pianos feature sleek lines and delicate accents that convey a striking, stately presence. Combining elegant form with rich, vibrant textures of tone, they will surely enhance the cultural ambience of any room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs functional as they are beautiful, K Series upright pianos include a long list of inspired features designed to ensure effortless practicality. The ultra-slow “Soft Fall” closing system protects hands and the piano’s finish from the harm that a jarring close might cause. Conveniently built into the fallboard, selected K Series music racks extend 100cm to accommodate multiple music books or sheet music that extends laterally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur proprietary casting process binds molten brass to a sturdy steel core resulting in strong, beautiful pedals that will not wear through over time. Similarly, K Series front casters made of solid brass are as sturdy as they are attractive, with double casters used for the larger K Series models (from K-300). The height adjustable bench on all K Series models is especially valuable for teaching studios with many students and for families with more than one player.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKawai K-500\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e130cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e150cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e62cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e238kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMillennium III\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey surfaces\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeotex\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHammers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMahogany, Double felted\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e#1 string length\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1,230mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoundboard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolid Spruce, 1.45m²\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoundboard ribs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e11\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBack posts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContour bars\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuplex scale\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTuning pins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNickel plated\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFallboard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional style with soft fall mechanism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusic rack\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFallboard rack, 100cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront casters\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDouble brass\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFallboard lock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBench type\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatching height adjustable, padded\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Kawai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44431169781853,"sku":"930023000122","price":15670.25,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/8179\/7213\/files\/k500_styling.png?v=1778349174"},{"product_id":"kawai-k300jmp-122cm-upright-piano-polished-mahogany","title":"Kawai K300JMP 122cm Upright Piano - Polished Mahogany (K-300JMP)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease call 02 6282 3199 and ask to speak to the piano department for our best price.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA purchase of this piano from Better Music includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree delivery to the Canberra region (other regions call\/email for best quote)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 year manufacturer's warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching adjustable stool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x free piano tuning in home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe K-300 builds upon the success of its award-winning predecessor, the K-3, named Acoustic Piano of the Year in four consecutive years.

While our nine decades of experience and tradition have enabled the creation of remarkable touch and tone for today, it is our celebrated technology that powerfully preserves and sustains that outstanding touch and tone for tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis innovative spirit is the essence of Kawai — and the principal reason why we remain a generation ahead in providing exceptional performance that endures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe revolutionary Millennium III upright action is the secret behind the ultra-responsive touch of the K Series upright pianos. Introduced in 2006, the Millennium III upright action features components made of ABS Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fibre into our renowned ABS Styran. ABS Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, which allows the creation of action parts that are lighter without sacrificing strength.\u003cbr\u003eABS Carbon is many times stronger than wood and is virtually impervious to shrinking and swelling due to humidity. This extraordinary combination of strength and stability allows ABS Carbon action parts to transfer energy to the hammers with unparalleled efficiency, power, precision and nuance for a superb playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most coveted attributes of a fine piano is dynamic range – the ability to play not only thundering fortissimos, but also the most delicate and sensitive pianissimos. Longer keys make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface, benefitting the player with greater control and more power with less effort.\u003cbr\u003eOur exclusive NEOTEX key surface material made with cellulose fibre offers the smooth, understated texture of natural ivory and ebony – and a semi-porous, silica-filled surface to absorb the hand’s natural oils and perspiration that can cause slipping. NEOTEX resists cracking and fading over years of use, and is used for both the sharps and the naturals for a consistent feel across the entire keyboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straight-grained, quarter-sawn solid spruce for K Series soundboards. Each soundboard is strategically tapered to maximize its tone producing capability. Only those that meet or exceed our demanding quality standards are selected for use in our professional upright pianos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piano’s soundboard is placed under tension to create a slight curvature – or crown – that dramatically increases the production of sound.

The K-300 proudly extends this distinguished legacy.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor over eighty-seven years, Kawai has been building pianos, boldly pioneering the use of state-of-the-art materials and ideas to advance the piano art form. While our nine decades of experience and tradition have enabled the creation of remarkable touch and tone for today, it is our celebrated technology that powerfully preserves and sustains that outstanding touch and tone for tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis innovative spirit is the essence of Kawai — and the principal reason why we remain a generation ahead in providing exceptional performance that endures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe revolutionary Millennium III upright action is the secret behind the ultra-responsive touch of the K Series upright pianos. Introduced in 2006, the Millennium III upright action features components made of ABS Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fibre into our renowned ABS Styran. ABS Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, which allows the creation of action parts that are lighter without sacrificing strength.\u003cbr\u003eABS Carbon is many times stronger than wood and is virtually impervious to shrinking and swelling due to humidity. This extraordinary combination of strength and stability allows ABS Carbon action parts to transfer energy to the hammers with unparalleled efficiency, power, precision and nuance for a superb playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most coveted attributes of a fine piano is dynamic range – the ability to play not only thundering fortissimos, but also the most delicate and sensitive pianissimos. Longer keys make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface, benefitting the player with greater control and more power with less effort.\u003cbr\u003eOur exclusive NEOTEX key surface material made with cellulose fibre offers the smooth, understated texture of natural ivory and ebony – and a semi-porous, silica-filled surface to absorb the hand’s natural oils and perspiration that can cause slipping. NEOTEX resists cracking and fading over years of use, and is used for both the sharps and the naturals for a consistent feel across the entire keyboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straight-grained, quarter-sawn solid spruce for K Series soundboards. Each soundboard is strategically tapered to maximize its tone producing capability. Only those that meet or exceed our demanding quality standards are selected for use in our professional upright pianos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piano’s soundboard is placed under tension to create a slight curvature – or crown – that dramatically increases the production of sound. K Series pianos feature full-length ribs that are securely notched into the rim liner on all sides to preserve the soundboard crown over time. The ribs also distribute sound energy more evenly across the soundboard to optimise its tone-producing capabilities. Contour bars reshape the speaking area of the soundboard to resemble the contour of a grand piano soundboard, while reflecting sound energy back into the centre for increased tonal power and sustain.\u003cbr\u003eAll K Series hammers are T-stapled to preserve hammer shape, and fitted with an added interior layer of underfelt to support the creation of exceptional tone. Bridges transfer the vibrations of the strings to the soundboard. K Series bridges are made from select hard maple, individually notched for a clear, powerful tone quality. Height is carefully set and matched to the iron plate for correct string pressure and optimal tonal transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strength of a well-crafted instrument makes the piano one of the most impressive examples of technology, engineering and craftsmanship in the world today. K series professional upright pianos are designed with tremendous strength to ensure stability of tone and touch over time. On all K Series models, the soundboard is supported by exceptionally strong multi-layered back posts and our proprietary “matched strength” iron plate. Using state-of-the-art CAD technology, we calibrate the strength and mass of the plate to match the scale design of each individual model, while plate bolts strengthen the connection between the plate and back posts for greater stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piano’s keybed must be strong and stable to support the action assembly, and maintain action regulation over years of heavy use. K Series keybeds are made with sturdy laminated hardwoods and reinforced by rear braces on the iron frame that help to ensure stable placement and add rigidity to prevent energy loss. Furthermore, the keyslip – the long, horizontal piece of wood that covers the front faces of the keys – is reinforced with a heavy-gauge steel angle iron to prevent warping or bending in any direction.\u003cbr\u003eThe multi-grip pinblock on all K Series pianos is multi-laminated with a minimum of eleven cross-banded layers of North American hard maple for maximum strength and consistent torque, and K Series tuning pins are made from the finest steel, machine-threaded for maximum bi-directional torque and nickel plated to enhance beauty and provide long-term protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe K Series pianos feature sleek lines and delicate accents that convey a striking, stately presence. Combining elegant form with rich, vibrant textures of tone, they will surely enhance the cultural ambience of any room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs functional as they are beautiful, K Series upright pianos include a long list of inspired features designed to ensure effortless practicality. The ultra-slow “Soft Fall” closing system protects hands and the piano’s finish from the harm that a jarring close might cause. Conveniently built into the fallboard, selected K Series music racks extend 100cm to accommodate multiple music books or sheet music that extends laterally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur proprietary casting process binds molten brass to a sturdy steel core resulting in strong, beautiful pedals that will not wear through over time.

A taller profile and concert-length key buttons make them more rigid to provide exceptional energy transfer and optimum power.\u003cbr\u003eTapered Solid Spruce Soundboard\u003cbr\u003eThe soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straightgrained, quarter-sawn solid spruce for GL series soundboards. Each one is strategically tapered to provide the proper degree of resonant movement in each region. Only soundboards that meet or exceed our demanding resonance standards are selected for use in the GL series grand pianos.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kawai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44431170109533,"sku":"GL10-ATX4","price":22320.25,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/8179\/7213\/files\/gl10atx4_main-e1707762644565.png?v=1778349190"},{"product_id":"kawai-k-300-aures2-hybrid-piano-ebony-polish","title":"Kawai K-300 Aures2 Hybrid Piano - Ebony Polish","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease call 02 6282 3199 and ask to speak to the piano department for our best price.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA purchase of this piano from Better Music includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree delivery to the Canberra region (other regions call\/email for best quote)\u003cbr\u003e12 year manufacturer's warranty (only on acoustic components, 5-year warranty applies to electronics)\u003cbr\u003eMatching adjustable stool\u003cbr\u003e1x free piano tuning in home\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eK-300 AURES2 combines specially developed acoustic muting features with class-leading digital technologies and an advanced soundboard speaker system.
