Kawai GX-2 Acoustic Grand Piano

Kawai GX-2 professional acoustic grand piano

The Kawai GX-2, a 180 cm classic salon-sized piano, delivers a deep tonal foundation, clear mid-register, and free treble projection. It is a professional model balanced between size, volume, and placement flexibility.

Ryuyo craftsmanship and the character of the GX series

The GX series combines Kawai's traditional grand piano manufacturing in Ryuyo, Japan, with modern materials engineering. The tonal goal of the series is to provide natural transitions between registers, wide dynamics, clear projection, and reliable mechanical control for the pianist. With string scaling and a soundboard tailored to its size, the GX-2 displays these features with its characteristic volume and resonance duration.

Millennium III grand action

The Millennium III action features ABS-Carbon parts reinforced with carbon fiber. Because this material is lighter and stiffer than wooden action components, it facilitates faster note repetition, precise pianissimo control, and a stable response during powerful performance. Extended keys create more even resistance from the front of the keyboard to the back, while NEOTEX white and black key surfaces provide a controlled touch during long practice sessions.

Mahogany hammers and tonal precision

The GX series uses lightweight and rigid mahogany-core, full under-felted hammers. The mass and hardness of the hammer accurately transfer energy from the key to the string, creating a clear response from soft nuances to powerful climaxes. Front and back duplex scaling utilizes harmonic energy from the non-speaking lengths of the string, adding brightness to the upper register and additional color to the sound.

Solid spruce soundboard and resonance system

The 1.23 m² solid spruce soundboard, featuring straight grain and tapered processing, converts string vibrations into a broad, balanced tone. Three back posts, a vertically laminated treble bridge, and a hybrid inner frame support the transmission of energy to the soundboard. The CORE system unites the piano's primary power points at the acoustic center; the SOLID construction holds the pinblock, upper beam, and rim in a single, rigid structure. The V‑Pro vacuum-molded iron frame is designed for stability under high string tension.
