This medium-sized Kawai grand has a new set of tuning pins for maximum tuning stability, but it is otherwise all original and in gently used condition with our standard 10-year warranty. Since 1927, Kawai has held their own against Yamaha, their larger rival who shares their home city of Hamamatsu, Japan. No doubt, this is because Kawai makes pianos that are equal in quality to Yamaha but are different musically, enough that musicians often strongly prefer one brand over the other, and tell their friends (or students) that their preferred brand is “better” than the rival brand. In our shop, we don’t have to be loyal to any specific manufacturer and can sell any piano we think is good. We place Yamaha and Kawai pianos side-by-side in the shop as the equals we believe them to be and let our customers decide the best choice according to their taste. A new 5’10” ebony Kawai grand today is priced at $49,295. Even with an unthinkably huge discount from a new Kawai dealer, you would end up paying 2-3 times the price of this piano. Pianos like this are the reason we have sold pianos all over the country. Why buy new?
