Kawai ES120

Kawai pianos are known for their warm tones and depth of sound, and the ES120 is no different. The Shigeru SK-EX grand piano’s iconic tones have been used to create one of the 25 voices on this piano.

Kawai’s focus is on replicating the feel of an acoustic grand. The ES120 has hammer action and graded weighting across the keys, providing the most accurate of responses.

Alongside grand piano sounds, there are other piano tones that are more suitable for pop, jazz, and modern music. These can be used with the inbuilt effects to replicate the reverb of the venue of your choice.

To make it easier to learn, the ES120 has inbuilt tools such as a metronome, drum rhythms, and split mode.

Thanks to Bluetooth connectivity, you can adjust the sound using the PianoRemote app or play your own music through the 20-watt speakers.

This Kawai piano comes with an F-1SP switch pedal, and there are wooden stands and triple pedal units available, so you can create the best setup for you!

With a simplistic design, the P125A is controllable via the hardware or the Smart Pianist app, making it easy to achieve the sound you want.

Yamaha understand that stage pianos won’t always be on stands, and so you have the option of “Table EQ” which ensures your sound is always optimised!

The PX-S1100 is one of the most compact models of stage piano available. You can keep it anywhere in your house – the sleek design is perfect as a statement piece or for storing away when it’s not needed.
