Because Kawai builds the Boston piano, Bostons are naturally quite good!  However, much like a luxury automobile, the value of a Boston piano drops precipitously. 

Case in point: 

The MSRP of a new Boston 5’10” GP-178 grand piano is $37,900 according to PianoBuyer.com. This preowned Boston 5’10” GP-178 is being offered for sale at just $11,500!

At just a 1/3 of its new value and many decades of life remaining in this instrument, why would anyone with any sense at all stroke a check for triple?

Samick is the founder of the European hybrid piano movement (EHP). EHP combine a top notch piano designer, high density of European components and affordable Asian labor rates. Brands like Knabe and Pramberger paved the way for the modern Ritmuller, Kayserburg and Perzina EHP.

Before Steinway dealers were gifted the Essex line of pianos, pianos built by Pearl River for Steinway; Steinway dealers typically carried the Kohler and Campbell line of pianos.

K & C pianos was an American made piano established in 1896. They were known for producing good quality pianos at an affordable price. Samick acquired the brand in the early 2000s and have been producing pianos in Samick’s Korean and Indonesian factories for nearly two decades.

This model feature tonal release vents at the top, on either side of the music desk and one large tonal release port on the bottom panel.  This design allows the piano’s tone to fully sing through the barrier all upright pianos face, that is the wooden box which traps much of the sound from escaping.

If you are shopping for a quality preowned Yamaha, Kawai, Boston or Essex piano in Tampa you will want to audition this and hundreds more, at Dave’s Piano Showroom of Tampa Bay.

Kawai is most well known for solving for the inevitable sticky key over 50 years ago, with the use of ABS Styran in the fabrication of their action parts.

ABS is more than 30 times resistant to swelling than comparable wooden parts and shown to be 50% stronger under fracture load analysis.

Seeing Kawai great innovations, material selection, and incredibly tight tolerances is likely what drew Steinway & Sons attention to the Kawai brand in 1991.

Kawai graciously agreed to help Steinway reach new economic prosperity and agreed to build their new made up line of Boston pianos. For over 30 years Kawai continues to be the main supporting structure that undergirds Steinway’s success.
