The Kawai KG-2C grand piano is a highly regarded, professional-grade 5’10” (178 cm) instrument produced in Japan primarily during the 1970s and 1980s, known for its warm tone and responsive action.

This Kawai KG-2C Grand was built in Japan around 1980, and is an example of Kawai’s professional-level instruments. The materials used were of the highest quality, and this example has gone through a full 113-point check to ensure it’s in excellent condition throughout.  

As a 5’10” grand, the Kawai KG2C is compact enough for many domestic settings, and yet offers many advantages as a medium-sized instrument when compared to baby grands. In addition to its longer strings and larger soundboard giving a richer sound, the keysticks of the action are also longer, meaning that the keyboard has a greater level of control. This example has a beautiful, rich bass, a clear and singing middle section, and a bell-like clarity in the treble
