About Shigeru Kawai

Starting out in Japan more than a century ago, Shigeru Kawai Pianos have earned a reputation as one of the finest piano manufacturers – and it’s a status that’s duly deserved.

Always seeking to push boundaries, this is a brand in constant pursuit of excellence. Combining decades of experience with the advances of pioneering technologies, Kawai promises (and delivers) extraordinary quality, touch, and tone with each and every piano they produce.

 

What makes the Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano so special?

The priority with the Kawai SK-EX isn’t a rush to get the piano on the market – it’s to achieve flawless perfection.

The official Kawai brochure states that: “Over 100 years ago, in a humble workshop in Japan, Koichi Kawai embarked upon a journey – a spiritual quest to design and build a piano that would one day be called ‘the finest’.”

We’d say the SK-EX achieves this.

How much does the SK-EX cost?

The sticking point for many with the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano is the price. Retailing at over £125k, there’s no escaping it – this is an expensive piano.

But it’s worth it.

The responsive touch, the elegant tone – whilst the cost may dwarf other piano price tags on the market, so too do the features and qualities. This isn’t just your average piano. This is something very, very special.

 

Is this a piano for amateur players?

It’s unlikely that a first-time player is going to start shelling out this sort of money on a piano, no matter how fabulous it is. Nor is this a model for hobbyist – unless you’re particularly keen to invest in your pastimes.

As the largest in the Kawai grand range, this majestic instrument stands at a height of 102cm, with a length of 278cm and a width of 158cm – it also weighs in at 504kg. Given its size and status, this is a statement piano of unparalleled quality, best suited to concert halls and professionals who can capitalise on its performance capabilities.

      Great place to choose the right piano for your needs, offers a wide selection for both the amateur and professional! I tried out a number of pianos. My second hand yamaha arrived pristine, and was delivered with care and attention. Plays beautifully and Richard was knowledgeable and helpful in giving playing tips to an amateur such as myself!

      A huge thank you to Colin & Richard @ Richard Lawson Piano’s. If you are considering buying a piano then take my advice and look no further. I was in the market to purchase a grand Piano for my 13-year-old daughter and after looking for a couple of months, indecisive which Piano to purchase, I came across Richard Lawson Piano’s. My initial call was with Richard who was extremely nice, knowledgeable, relaxed and not sales pushy. Based on that I decided to make the journey across to Amersham from Kent to visit the showroom where the selection and choice was just endless. I was welcomed by Colin who’s knowledge was incredible, he took his time without pressurising me to make a decision nor did he pressurise me to purchase anything. If you’re not 100% sure what to buy and need to look around to consider options then look no further, this is the Piano supper market. They also opened up for us especially the day before Christmas break to collect. Thank you so very much for a fantastic service. All the best Matt & Kirstie

      Richard Lawson Pianos are excellent retailers for pianos. And I would absolutely recommend for anyone buying their first piano to go there, as their hospitality and professionalism is top tier. Colin was the very kind gentleman who guided me step by step into chosing a piano withing my budget and of excellent quality.

      I purchased a Yamaha digital 825 recently. I was very impressed with the high level of service I received from ordering through to the delivery. I have also had help with help, regarding the setting up of my earphones . They are very knowledgeable, friendly, efficient people to deal with. I can recommend the service of Richard Lawson. It is excellent!

      As a non player and first time piano purchaser buying for advanced level teenage players we needed allot of guidance and support in sourcing our piano. We have had an excellent service from Colin at Richard Lawson Pianos. From our initial telephone conversation to help us understand our requirements and give clear unbiased advice to what we should be looking for (and avoid), through to our showroom visit on the following weekend. Amazing showroom and selection of Pianos to select from, we enjoyed our visit and selection process. Purchasing, finance and delivery were all seemless and highly co-ordinated making everything simple and stress free. Great service all round.

      I have been recommending Richard Lawson Pianos to my students for over 10 years, and every experience has been excellent. Colin was incredibly helpful from start to finish. I didn't even need to visit the showroom, as he promptly answered all my questions and matched the best price. He was also happy to hold the piano for over a month while I arranged the move of my previous piano. The delivery was almost impossible due to the access, but Colin organised everything smoothly. The delivery team worked incredibly hard and managed what seemed impossible. To make things even better, the piano technician contacted me just two days after delivery without me having to chase anyone. The piano was delivered on Friday, and I already had a message from the technician by Sunday. The level of customer service has been outstanding every time I have purchased a piano from Richard Lawson Pianos. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality piano and first-class service. Thank you so much, Colin, for all your help!
