About This Piano
This 2020 Kawai K800AS is a wonderful example of the immense musicality this model is capable of. It is finished in ebony polish and in like new condition cosmetically and musically. This piano sounds stunning and plays amazingly. The level of precision and speed of repetition will make even the most advanced players forget that they are playing an upright piano. Its tone is warm and its dynamic range is massive.
While the current version of the K800AS sells for over $25,000, this is a unique opportunity to get a very young specimen for a truly special price. This piano would be the perfect solution for a high level player that cannot allot the floor space required for a grand piano. It is truly one of the closest things one will find to a standing grand piano.
The Kawai K800AS is one of very few true upright grand pianos to be built in Asia. Standing at 53”, Kawai’s K800AS features a full sostenuto, premium AAA solid spruce tapered soundboard, double-felted mahogany hammers, a grand piano music desk, and extended key sticks, which combine to present the player with one of the closest playing experiences to a grand piano that one will find in an upright form.
