Making the call

Is The KG-2 Right For You?

Read both. The second list is the one that saves people money.

Choose the KG-2 if

  • You want a piano that will not need replacing as the player improves
  • You have a dedicated music room or a generous living area
  • The player is advanced enough that the instrument is now the limit

Look at something else if

  • The room is under about 20 square metres, where it will overwhelm the space
  • Access involves a staircase with tight turns
Sound and size

What The KG-2 Sounds Like

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.

Room and access

Will it get in?

  • Space: about 2.1 m across
  • Floor: roughly 4.1 m² with room to sit and pass
  • Case width 152 cm, height 102 cm
  • Access: Lift, moved in parts

294 kg. Short for a grand, still a planned move rather than a delivery.

Buying it used

What You Are Actually Buying

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.

Our rent-to-own programme

Rent First. The Rent Becomes Credit.

Renting first is the low-risk way in. Nothing you pay is wasted, because it counts toward buying the piano later.

Questions

Kawai KG-2: What People Ask

How big is the Kawai KG-2?

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.

Will a KG-2 fit my place?

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.

Is a used KG-2 a safe buy?

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.

Can I rent a KG-2 instead?

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.

Do you have a KG-2 in stock?

Ask, because it changes week to week. When we are out, we say so rather than steer you into whatever is on the floor.

How often does a KG-2 need tuning in Malaysia?

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.
