The Kawai GX2 BLAK Series grand piano in Ebony Satin is a distinguished 5'11" salon grand featuring Kawai's exclusive Millennium III action with ABS-Carbon technology. This award-winning instrument delivers exceptional tonal clarity with a sophisticated satin finish that reduces light reflection while maintaining professional-grade performance. Ideal for serious performers, educational institutions, and discerning musicians who desire extraordinary sound quality with subtle, understated elegance.

Product Overview

The GX2 BLAK showcases Kawai's meticulous craftsmanship with its Konsei Katagi rim, a unique blend of distinctive hardwoods that achieve the perfect balance of tonal resonance and structural stability. Part of the prestigious GX BLAK Performance Series designed for those who strive for extraordinary results, this instrument provides the capability and character to inspire uncommon artistry. The elegant Ebony Satin finish offers a refined, non-reflective alternative to polished ebony, making it particularly suitable for performance and recording environments. The solid spruce precision-tapered soundboard provides exceptional sustain and projection.

Featuring Kawai's exclusive Millennium III Action with ABS-Carbon composites, the GX2 BLAK offers unparalleled touch sensitivity and responsiveness. The extended length keysticks and NEOTEX™ key surfaces provide moisture-absorbing properties for greater touch control, allowing for effortless articulation from pianissimo to fortissimo. This proprietary technology ensures consistent performance in varying climates and intensive use, making it an ideal choice for serious musicians and institutions.

The GX2 BLAK's advanced scale design, created in the Shigeru Kawai Research and Development Laboratory, incorporates dual-duplex scaling for added tonal richness. The vertically laminated bridge with solid maple cap enhances energy transfer from strings to soundboard, while the V-Pro plate with "Crossbone" design provides optimal support for string tension and soundboard resonance. The "Soft Fall" fallboard closing system protects both the piano and players' hands, reflecting Kawai's attention to both performance and safety details.

• Professional musicians and composers who prefer the subtle, non-reflective finish for performance and recording environments
• Music educators seeking a reliable, professional-quality instrument with a sophisticated aesthetic for teaching studios
• Churches and worship centers desiring warm, balanced tone with minimal visual distraction during services
• Recording studios requiring exceptional sound quality with reduced light reflection for video productions
• Serious piano students advancing their technical skills on a responsive instrument with professional-grade action
• Performance venues where stage lighting makes a polished finish impractical

Key Features

Millennium III Action with ABS-Carbon Technology

The revolutionary Millennium III action utilizes ABS-Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fiber into ABS styran. This combination creates an action that is stronger, more responsive, and more dimensionally stable than conventional wood actions, ensuring consistent performance even with intensive use and varying climate conditions.

NEOTEX™ Key Surfaces

Both white and black keys feature Kawai's exclusive NEOTEX™ material, which offers the tactile feel of natural ivory and ebony with moisture-absorbing properties. This technology provides superior grip and control during performance, particularly during passages requiring delicate touch or extended playing, giving performers the confidence needed for artistic expression.

Konsei Katagi Rim Design

The GX2 BLAK's distinctive rim construction utilizes a blend of hardwoods specifically selected to achieve an ideal balance of tonal projection and warmth. This premium construction methodology, exclusive to the GX BLAK Performance Series, ensures optimal resonance and tonal character throughout the entire dynamic range for pianists who aspire to the highest level.

Solid Spruce Precision Tapered Soundboard

The heart of the GX2 BLAK's voice is its solid spruce soundboard, precision-tapered to maintain permanent crown for decades of tonal stability. This meticulous design, a hallmark of the GX BLAK Performance Series, allows for exceptional dynamic range and tonal clarity from the deepest bass to the highest treble, providing the extraordinary tools needed for extraordinary results.

Ebony Satin Finish

The sophisticated Ebony Satin finish offers a subtle, elegant alternative to traditional polished pianos. This premium finish reduces light reflection while highlighting the piano's classical proportions, making it ideal for performance venues, recording studios, and environments where a more understated aesthetic is desired. The satin finish also reduces the visibility of fingerprints and dust, requiring less frequent cleaning.
