A real grand piano 

Measuring 150cm in length, the GM-10 offers the same attention to detail and quality found in Kawai's larger pianos - in a petite size to fit any room. The action design and components are comparable to those in our GE and RX Series pianos to provide outstanding touch and playability. With it's resonant tone and classic good looks, the GM-10 will be an impressive addition to any home. 

Exclusive Ultra-Responsive Action 

Kawai's "Ultra-Responsive Action" stands alone in providing the finest combination of strength, stability, precision and reliability. Hammer heads are made with 100% premium wool felt. To make the action resistant to climatic and seasonal changes in temperature and humidity, we pioneered the use of aluminium action rails, aluminium hammer rest rails and precision parts made of extremely stable, low-friction ABS Styran. 

   

 

 

Full Sostenuto Pedal 

Unlike many baby grands that have only a bass sustain pedal, the GM-10 Grand allows you to sustain the first played notes, then play staccato over the rest of the keyboard. This is a function normally found only on larger grands. 

Steel reinforced, Anti-Warp Keyslip 

The GM and GE Series keyslips are reinforced with a heavy-guage steel inside liner that prevents warping or bending in any direction. Keys move freely with virtually no possibility of rubbing or sticking against the inside of the keyslip.

Steel reinforced Keybed  

The GM and GE Series keybeds are made of extremely strong, laminated hardwoods.  

Kawai also reinforces each keybed with an underside steel support beam for maximum stability. 

 

Laminated beams of Matoa 

All GM and GE Series beams are made of Matoa, one of the world’s hardest woods. Our cross-banded LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) construction method creates beams that are many times stronger and more durable than beams made of solid wood. 

Multi-Laminate Pinblock 

GM and GE Series pinblocks are laminated with a minimum of 11 cross-banded layers of hard rock maple. Lamination provides more strength, greater pressure and more balanced torque on the tuning pins for superior tuning stability.

ABS-CARBON FIBER:
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, BETTER PLAYING EXPERIENCE

Carbon fiber is enabling advancement
in aeronautics, athletic performance, automobiles, building structures
– and, of course, musical instruments.
At Kawai, we are proud to be the leader in advancing the piano art form. 

Consider how carbon fiber enhances the playing experience:

• DURABILITY—ABS-Carbon parts are more durable than traditional wood-based action parts and 90% stronger, meaning less maintenance and parts replacement.
• SPEED—Because ABS-Carbon is lighter, the action is approximately 25% faster. Keys depress and return more swiftly, providing increased repetition and playing speed
• POWER—The added rigidity of ABS-Carbon provides more power with less effort; so the piano responds to a lighter touch, making it easier to play.
• CONTROL—The meticulous redesign of the Millennium III Action offers superb control for the player. It is now easier than ever to maintain control for pianissimo playing.

 

Key Benefits Of The Millennium III Upright Action

• Stronger - The infusion of carbon fiber into ABS increased the strength of the material by 90%. This enabled ABS-Carbon parts to be stronger, even though they were made lighter in weight.
• Faster - With lighter ABS-Carbon parts, the Millennium III Action was made faster– approximately 25% faster than a conventional wooden action.
• Greater Power - ABS-Carbon is more rigid and sends more energy to the hammer with every keystroke, providing more power with less effort.
• Better Control - The jack is redesigned with a microscopic surface texture to provide unparalleled control for pianissimo playing.

THE POWER OF CARBON FIBER TECHNOLOGY

WHY ABS-CARBON?

Carbon fiber has been referred to as the lightest and strongest material on the face of the Earth. In other words, for its weight, carbon fiber is the strongest material you can find. Leading products all around us incorporate carbon fiber-based materials with far-reaching benefits. In Kawai pianos, the lighter design (made possible by carbon fiber) makes the Millennium III Action tremendously fast and effortless to play without affecting tone. In addition, ABS-Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, offering pianists more power with less effort. The exceptional consistency of ABS-Carbon provides these benefits over many years, something conventional wood components are unable to deliver.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH WOOD?

While certainly ideal for the important sound-producing elements of a piano, wood is less than ideal for many of the critical components found in a piano's action. Wood is susceptible to breakage from continual stress and can shrink and swell dramatically with changes in climate. This results in inconsistency over time, often requiring costly maintenance to keep a piano working properly. For years, the only alternative was to “treat the symptoms” by replacing failing wood parts and making continual adjustments.
