“The elegance of a grand piano”
TOUCH
The Millennium III action
The ground-breaking Millennium III Action utilises components made of ABS-Carbon—a composite material infused with carbon fibre.
ABS-Carbon is incredibly strong and rigid, meaning GL Series action parts can be made lighter without sacrificing strength.
The result is a stronger, faster action that offers more power, better control and greater stability than conventional all-wood actions.
Soft-closing fallboard
While the entry-level model in the grand piano range, this grand also benefits from a soft-closing lid or fallboard.
A luxurious feature previously only high-end instruments and means no more trapped fingers!
TONE
Tapered, solid spruce soundboard
The purpose of the soundboard 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 GL Series soundboards.
Each is strategically tapered to provide the optimum degree of resonant movement in each region. Only soundboards that meet or exceed our demanding resonance standards are selected for use in the GX Series grand pianos.
QUALITY
Quality control and bespoke setup
With fantastic build and component quality, it is beautifully set up by Kawai’s technicians before delivery and ready for a lifetime of service.
