Making the call

Is The CL-2 Right For You?

The honest version. We would rather talk you out of the wrong piano than deliver it and hear about it later.

Choose the CL-2 if

You want something that resells easily if plans change
You want a piano that sounds properly like one without taking over the room
The room is normal rather than generous

Look at something else if

A teacher has specifically asked for a full-height instrument
The room is large and hard-surfaced, where a taller piano would carry better

Sound and size

What The CL-2 Sounds Like

There is enough string length for the middle of the keyboard to sing properly. The bass is honest rather than huge, which is the trade at this size.

Set against the Kawai No. K35, the most commonly sold used Kawai here, it is 10 cm shorter and 10 kg lighter. Middling for weight in a range that spans 160 kg to 270 kg.

Kawai voicing runs warmer than Yamaha at the same size, particularly up top. People who practise for hours tend to prefer it. There is no right answer here. Both are on the floor, so try them back to back.

Room and access

Will it get in?

Space: about 1.5 m of wall
Floor: roughly 1.0 m²
Case width 152 cm, depth 56 cm
Access: Lift preferred

210 kg is normal for this size. Access matters more than the number does. At 56 cm front to back it is one of the shallower cases in the range, which is worth knowing if the hallway it has to pass through is narrow.

Buying it used

What You Are Actually Buying

Tune it twice a year. Not because it gets played hard, but because the soundboard moves with the weather and takes the tuning with it.

Questions

Kawai CL-2: What People Ask

How big is the Kawai CL-2?

122 cm tall, 152 cm wide, 56 cm deep, and about 210 kg. Height sets the tone, weight sets what delivery day looks like.

Will a CL-2 fit my place?

You need about 1.5 m of wall and roughly 1.0 m². 210 kg is normal for this size. Access matters more than the number does. Give us the measurements and the access and we will be straight about whether it works.

Is a used CL-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. It carries a five-year warranty on parts and labour, honoured by the workshop that did the work.

Can I rent a CL-2 instead?

Rent-to-own runs on a separate pool that changes weekly, so we cannot promise a CL-2 specifically. Ask what is free now. Rent for six months, buy it, and those six months come off the price.

Do you have a CL-2 in stock?

Ask, because it changes week to week. No stock today does not mean no stock next month. We watch for specific models.

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

Twice a year. Tune it twice a year. Not because it gets played hard, but because the soundboard moves with the weather and takes the tuning with it. The first two tunings are on us, once it has settled in.
