Product Overview
This sophisticated GL-30 showcases a stunning polished ebony finish that creates a commanding visual presence with a mirror-like luster. The high-gloss finish enhances the piano's elegant appearance while providing the durability needed for years of performance. Hidden within this beautiful instrument is the revolutionary PianoDisc Prodigy system—completely invisible yet transformative in its capabilities.
At 5'5" in length, the GL-30 occupies a unique position in the piano world—substantially larger than a baby grand but more compact than a traditional classic grand. This intermediate size adapts admirably to a wide range of home, studio, and institutional spaces while providing enhanced projection and tonal depth. The solid spruce precision tapered soundboard is permanently crowned for long-term tonal stability, producing a warm, rich sound with excellent resonance.
The piano's exceptional tonal expressiveness is further enhanced by Dual Duplex Scaling, allowing the extreme ends of the strings to vibrate sympathetically and create additional harmonics that enrich the tone. The revolutionary Millennium III action with ABS-Carbon composites offers unparalleled responsiveness and control, allowing for expressive playing across all dynamic ranges.
The integrated PianoDisc Prodigy system represents the pinnacle of player piano technology, featuring SilentDrive HD technology and iQ High Resolution software with over 1,024 levels of expression for incredibly nuanced performances. This Bluetooth-ready system connects seamlessly with your iOS devices through the intuitive iQ Player App, giving you access to hundreds of songs across all genres and precise control over playback.

Versatile 5'5" Classic Grand Size
The GL-30's intermediate size offers substantial advantages over smaller baby grands while remaining more adaptable than larger instruments. This versatile size provides enhanced bass resonance, improved projection, and a more commanding presence while still fitting comfortably in a variety of spaces.
Millennium III Action with ABS-Carbon Technology
Kawai's exclusive action design incorporates carbon fiber for incredible strength and stability. This revolutionary technology creates a more responsive touch that remains consistent regardless of climate changes, offering better control and expression than traditional wooden actions.
Dual Duplex Scaling for Enhanced Tonal Complexity
This premium feature enhances tonal complexity by allowing both fore and back portions of the strings to vibrate sympathetically, creating additional harmonics.
