Grand pianos and baby-grand pianos are similar instruments, except for the size. What differentiates a grand or baby-grand from an upright piano, is the action mechanism. The hammers are positioned horizontally parallel to the strings. The design of the mechanism allows for higher precision in touch. Grand pianos can enhance the learning experience for beginner piano players and offer more possibilities for the advanced pianist.

Our digital pianos meet all the requirements to learn how to play. Kawai Digital pianos satisfy the needs of advanced piano players with regard to touch and tone. The touch of a Kawai digital, outperforms a similar priced acoustic piano (regular piano) and it is much better than most entry-level used pianos.

The name of these pianos comes from the position of the mechanism in relation to the strings. Hammers stand vertically parallel to the string-wire.
