All Kawai Piano Models and Sizes 1960 to 2010 KAWAI 1960 to 2014 All Grand Piano Models GRAND PIANO FINISHES Kawai Recent Sizes and Specifications Kawai Older Series and Specifications Before 1990 Kawai made three series of grand pianos: GE, KG and GS.

Microsoft access primer. The KG Series was by far the most popular. The KG-1 was called the Baby Grand, the KG-2 was called the Living Grand, and the KG-3 was 6'0' Professional Grand. The GS (Grand Supreme) is the most expensive and has the best features. It is designed for the best performance, whereas the GE series are designed more for efficiency in manufacturing, with fewer refinements. The KG series pianos system makes for a more rigid structure, which translates into better tone projection. The soundboard of the GS models is tapered for better tonal response, and the rim is thicker and stronger than in the other models. Models in the same row share string scales and basic dimensions.
