178 cm and 294 kg. It needs a proper room, and in one it sounds like it belongs there.
Send the room size and which floor it is going to. If it will not fit, we would rather tell you now than on delivery day.
Kawai
In the price, not added at the end.
Read both. The second list is the one that saves people money.
The middle and bottom open up at this length. It is the point where most players stop wishing for something longer. Same case as the Kawai KG-2C, 16 kg lighter.
Among the lightest we list, in a range that runs from 272 kg to 510 kg.
Kawai voicing runs warmer than Yamaha at the same size, particularly up top. People who practise for hours tend to prefer it. It is a preference, not a ranking. Come and sit at both.
294 kg. Short for a grand, still a planned move rather than a delivery.
Kawai built several at 178 cm long: the KG-2C, RX-2, No. 500. They differ in weight and case rather than in size. If the KG-2 is not on the floor when you ask, the table below is where we would send you next.
| Model | Length | Weight | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kawai KG-2 This model | 178 cm | 294 kg | 152 cm |
| Kawai RX-2 | 178 cm | 300 kg | 152 cm |
| Kawai No. 500 | 178 cm | 300 kg | 152 cm |
| Kawai KG-2C | 178 cm | 310 kg | 152 cm |
Every Kawai we sell has been through a full restoration in Japan and a second rebuild in Selangor. The second one matters most, because by then the piano has been through a humidity change we can actually see the effects of.
The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do.
Renting first is the low-risk way in. Nothing you pay is wasted, because it counts toward buying the piano later.
Kawai's long-running grand line. The number tracks length: a KG-1 is 164 cm, a KG-8 is a 276 cm concert instrument.
178 cm long, 152 cm wide, 102 cm tall, and about 294 kg. On a grand the length is the number that matters, because it sets the bass string length and the floor space you need.
You need about 2.1 m across and roughly 4.1 m² with room to sit and pass. 294 kg. Short for a grand, still a planned move rather than a delivery. Tell us the building and we will tell you whether this one can get in.
Every Kawai we sell has been through a full restoration in Japan and a second rebuild in Selangor. The second one matters most, because by then the piano has been through a humidity change we can actually see the effects of. There is a five-year warranty behind it, and we are the ones who service it.
Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a KG-2 specifically. Ask what is free now. Nothing paid in rent is wasted if you decide to keep the piano.
Ask, because it changes week to week. When we are out, we say so rather than steer you into whatever is on the floor.
Twice a year. The piano heater that comes with it is not a gimmick. In a damp house, run on a timer, it is the cheapest maintenance you will do. We include the two tunings it needs after moving.
One message and we will tell you what we have, what it costs, and whether the KG-2 is really the right size for your room.
