Kawai SK-6 Shigeru Kawai | Grand Acoustic Piano

Description

The Shigeru Kawai SK-6 is a concert-level orchestra grand piano that brings together technical mastery and aesthetic elegance. At 214 cm in length, the SK-6 is crafted for musicians and institutions seeking premium performance and lasting tonal character.

This model incorporates Kawai’s advanced Millennium III Action built with ABS-Carbon, ensuring powerful, stable, and lightning-fast key response. The extended-length spruce keys, boxwood bridge caps, and custom-tapered solid spruce soundboard provide nuanced expression across the tonal spectrum.

Master Piano Artisans (MPAs) oversee every detail of the SK-6 — from voicing each hammer by hand to assembling the intricate dual-pivot damper system that enables smooth half-pedaling. The Hybrid Inner Rim, Concert Agraffes, and All-Spruce Beams amplify tonal precision and projection, while SOLID construction ensures structural integrity under tension.
