Kawai GL-30 (Made in Japan) Ebony Polish Grand Piano

KAWAI GL-30 CLASSIC GRAND PIANO （GL30 / GL 30)

The most distinctive feature of the 5’5″ GL-30 Classic Grand is its flexible size, which is substantially larger than a baby grand piano, but not quite as large as the traditional classic grand.

This intermediate size allows it to adapt easily to a wide range of home, studio or institutional spaces.

Regardless of venue, the GL-30 is an instrument of outstanding quality that will always provide a level of tone and touch worthy of GL Series, MMR Magazine’s 2016 “Product of the Year.”

The Millennium III action

The Millennium III Action is made from ABS-Carbon, a strong and lightweight composite combining carbon fibre with ABS Styran.
This durable material allows for lighter action parts without losing strength, resulting in a faster, more powerful, and stable performance than traditional all-wood actions.

Longer keys

Longer keys make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface.
A taller profile and concert-length key buttons make them more rigid to provide exceptional energy transfer and optimum power.

Tapered Soundboard Made of Solid Spruce

The soundboard is the heart of a piano. Its purpose is to transform the vibrations of the piano’s strings into a rich, resounding tone. Kawai uses only straight-grained,
quarter-sawn solid spruce for GL series soundboards. Each one is strategically tapered to provide the proper degree of resonant movement in each region. Only soundboards that meet or exceed our demanding resonance standards are selected for use in the GL series grand pianos.

SOLID (Stretcher Over-Lap Integrated Design)(/strong)

SOLID construction provides a strong foundation for string tension. First, the pinblock is attached to the plate. Next, the pinblock and stretcher bar are combined and securely fixed to the
rim. The thick stretcher bar highlights the strength of this framework, which is designed for stable tuning and a powerful sound.

V-Pro Plate

The plate is the acoustically neutral iron superstructure of the piano over which the strings are tensioned.All GL Series plates are molded using the Vacuum Mold Process (V-Pro) with “Crossbone Design.” The result is a plate that is strong, stable, and beautiful.
