Kawai CA98

The Kawai CA98 is the flagship of a regenerated ‘Concert Artist’ Series and marks a dramatic step forward in Kawai’s mission. Established features such as the unique Soundboard Speaker System have been refined further. The widely praised and proven Grand Feel II action with its extended, fully wooden keys and grand piano pivot points remains, offering players the most expressive control of the instrument’s prodigious capabilities.
