Making the call

Is The KG-3 Right For You?

Both sides of it. If the right-hand column sounds like your situation, say so and we will point you elsewhere.

Choose the KG-3 if

You are fitting out a studio, a school room or a hall
The room is large enough that a smaller grand would sound thin in it
You teach, accompany or record and need an instrument that holds up

Look at something else if

This is a family living room rather than a studio
You cannot give it clearance on all sides with the lid open

Sound and size

What The KG-3 Sounds Like

Bass that carries without effort, and a treble that keeps singing when pushed. It needs a big room to make sense. Against the Kawai KG-3C it is 4 cm taller and 0 kg lighter.

Among the lightest we list, in a range that runs from 272 kg to 510 kg.

Two pedals, which is normal for its generation and market. We will say if the one on the floor has had a third added.

Kawai voicing runs warmer than Yamaha at the same size, particularly up top. People who practise for hours tend to prefer it. Neither is better. Play both, which you can do on one floor at the shop.

Buying it used

What You Are Actually Buying

What you are buying is the rebuild, not the badge. Two KG-3s can be thousands of ringgit apart depending on what was replaced and how the last owner kept it.

Humidity decides how a piano ages here. These were built for a climate with a winter, and in Malaysia the soundboard takes up moisture and gives it back, week after week. That movement pulls a piano out of tune, not playing it.

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-3: What People Ask

How big is the Kawai KG-3?

186 cm long, 152 cm wide, 102 cm tall, and about 315 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-3 fit my place?

You need about 2.1 m across and roughly 4.2 m² with room to sit and pass. 315 kg, moved in parts and reassembled in the room, then levelled and tuned once it is standing. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.

Is a used KG-3 a safe buy?

What you are buying is the rebuild, not the badge. Two KG-3s can be thousands of ringgit apart depending on what was replaced and how the last owner kept it. Five years of parts and labour cover comes with it, from the same people who rebuilt it.

Can I rent a KG-3 instead?

Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a KG-3 specifically. Ask what is free now. The rent turns into credit the moment you decide to buy it.

Do you have a KG-3 in stock?

Ask, because it changes week to week. If nothing suits, we will tell you that too.

How often does a KG-3 need tuning in Malaysia?

Twice a year. Humidity decides how a piano ages here. These were built for a climate with a winter, and in Malaysia the soundboard takes up moisture and gives it back, week after week. That movement pulls a piano out of tune, not playing it. Two tunings after delivery are included when you buy from us.
