In our world of used pianos, Japanese vertical models (Kawai or Yamaha) between 48 & 52 inches tall (“full uprights”) that sell for over $4,000 are plentiful staples of our inventory. Smaller Yamaha or Kawai verticals between 44 & 47 inches tall (“studio uprights”) priced under $4,000 are a small minority of our upright piano inventory. Such pianos are usually snapped up as fast as we can get them on our website. Therefore, this Kawai studio upright is a wonderful and welcome addition to our inventory. At this price, we don’t expect it to be here very long. The cabinet and original parts are in excellent condition with decades of useful life ahead of them. Why buy new?
