The Kawai ND-21 Upright Piano offers incomparable value with outstanding sound, touch, and durability.  In addition to the exceptionally large solid spruce soundboard, ND-21 utilizes exclusive Ultra-Responsive Action that combines experienced craftmanship with Kawai’s world-renowned piano technology to provide exceptional touch and tone that will endure.

Features:

• Monochrome Design.  Standing proudly amongst other items of fine furniture, a piano is often considered the centerpiece of any room it occupies.  Featuring silver metallic parts and black soundboard and an iron frame, the ND-21 creates a modern sophisticated impression.  The simple yet novel and unconventional piano design will surely enhance the cultural ambiance of any room.
• Solid Spruce Soundboard.  The soundboard and ribs are considered the most important sound-producing components of a piano, with both the materials used and the manner in which they are assembled greatly affecting volume and tonal quality.  The ND-21 soundboard is produced using the finest quality straight-grained spruce, carefully selected and scientifically tested to exceed Kawai’s demanding resonance standards, ensuring exceptional dynamic range and outstanding tonal balance across the entire sound spectrum.
• Ultra Responsive Action and Quality Hammers.  The ND-21 features the exclusive Ultra-Responsive direct blow action, with selected hardwood hammer shanks and 100% wool felt hammer heads, providing an extraordinary touch and feel.  To improve the action’s climatic stability, Kawai pioneered the use of aluminum action rails, aluminum hammer rest rails, and ABS action parts – addressing many of the problems associated with wooden components, such as breakage under continual high stress and shrinking/swelling due to changes in temperature and humidity.
