About This Piano
Manufactured in 1988, this ebony polish Kawai US63H is in excellent condition musically and cosmetically. As you’d expect from an instrument of this size and quality, it has a very broad sound that possesses plenty of warmth, depth, and nuance. Even at the loudest dynamic levels, the US-63 is virtually void of string distortion. The bass section is impressively clear and powerful, while the middle and upper registers are colourfully musical.
Standing at a towering 52” tall, the Limited Edition Kawai US63H model is an upright piano that can outcompete the vast majority of baby grand pianos musically. With immense power and a wide tonal range, the US-63 is a true ‘professional’ upright that is capable of doing justice to even the most advanced repertoire. This model is essentially an early predecessor to the current Kawai K800 model, which sells for over $27,000 CAD! In addition to a very prominent soundboard and long bass strings, the US-63 includes a grand piano style music desk.
Kawai has established a reputation for building some of the best value upright and grand pianos on the market. Through an unrelenting commitment to quality craftsmanship and innovation, this Japanese piano giant has made some of the finest factory production pianos of all-time. The Kawai US63H, which is essentially a 52” early predecessor to the current K800 model, is an excellent example of this notion.
If you are seeking the closest musical experience to a grand piano but don’t have the floor space to accommodate a grand piano, this Kawai US63H is the perfect solution. With musical output that rivals most grand pianos between 5’ and 6’, players of all levels will enjoy and appreciate what this tremendous upright has to offer.
