Grand piano · 166 cmA 166 cm grand from Kawai’s GX BLAK series, photographed at our IMM gallery. Confirm the available instrument, its manufacture year and quotation before visiting; the photographs are not a live stock list.
Availability changes. Ask for the current selection and a quotation before visiting.
The GX-1 is the smallest grand in Kawai’s GX BLAK series, at 166 cm. That is the size most Singapore homes can actually take, and it is long enough that the bass strings have somewhere to go, which is the difference between a grand and a piece of furniture shaped like one.
GX BLAK is Kawai’s performance line, built in Japan, and it is where the company puts its Millennium III action with composite parts rather than all wood. The argument for that is dimensional stability in heat and humidity, which carries more weight here than it would in a temperate country.
The photographed instrument carries serial number 2783877 on its plate. Ask for the manufacture year and current condition of the particular GX-1 being offered, rather than relying on a rolling age claim from an older photograph. Current availability must be confirmed separately.
Ask for current availability and price
The same four we check ourselves before an instrument goes on the floor. Every instrument is an original used piano. Not reconditioned, not rebuilt. Ask us about any of them on a specific piano and you get a straight answer.
Where each of those is set out in full: See the inspection photographs → Find the age and serial number → Check delivery access to your room → Ask for an itemised quotation →
Compare the actual Kawai and Yamaha grands for touch, tone, condition and price. Check the model, production year and fitted action rather than assuming every used example has the same specifications.
Both, back to back, in the same room on the same afternoon. That is a fifteen minute job at the viewing gallery and it settles the question far better than any page can.
The instrument photographed here has serial number 2783877. Ask for the manufacture year of the specific piano currently offered before relying on an age claim. The photographs do not confirm that this instrument remains available.
Check both the placement area and the complete delivery route. Give us the floor, lift or stairs, doorway measurements and any tight turns so access can be assessed before booking. The model length alone does not establish that a piano will fit.
Compare the touch, tone and condition of the individual instruments, together with their dimensions and quotations. Ask which Kawai and Yamaha grands are available before arranging a side-by-side viewing.
It is priced on its own, like everything here, because condition and year decide most of the number. Ask about the specific instrument for its current quotation.
All grands
180 cm and up
The size people ask for by name is around six feet. It is long enough to behave like a proper grand and short enough to place in a home or a small hall, which is why it is the most requested length we see.
