Making the call

Is The KG-3C Right For You?

Worth reading the right-hand column properly. Most of the pianos that come back are access problems, not taste problems.

Choose the KG-3C if

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

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-3C Sounds Like

Balanced rather than spectacular. For a room in a house that is exactly right.

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. Which you prefer is genuinely personal, and twenty minutes at the shop settles it faster than any description.

Room and access

Will it get in?

  • Space: about 2.1 m across
  • Floor: roughly 4.2 m² with room to sit and pass
  • Case width 152 cm, height 102 cm
  • Access: Lift, planned move

315 kg. We walk the route before the day rather than discovering it on the morning.

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.

Keep it off an outside wall if you can, out of the sun, and away from the air conditioning. Those three things do more damage here than a child practising ever will.

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.

Questions

Kawai KG-3C: What People Ask

How big is the Kawai KG-3C?

182 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-3C fit my place?

You need about 2.1 m across and roughly 4.2 m² with room to sit and pass. 315 kg. We walk the route before the day rather than discovering it on the morning. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.

Is a used KG-3C 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. If something goes wrong in the first five years, it is our workshop that fixes it.

Can I rent a KG-3C instead?

Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a KG-3C specifically. Ask what is free now. Buy the one you have been renting and the rent already paid comes off the price.

Do you have a KG-3C 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-3C need tuning in Malaysia?

Twice a year. Keep it off an outside wall if you can, out of the sun, and away from the air conditioning. Those three things do more damage here than a child practising ever will. Two free tunings in the first fortnight come with the piano.
