For nearly a century Kawai has constructed some of the world’s finest pianos in Japan. Kawai is commonly referred to as the engineer’s piano of choice. This is due to the fact that Kawai was able to solve for the sticky key and sluggish action, due to fluctuation in temperature and humidity decades ago.

Kawai’s exclusive ABS action offer an ultra responsive feel and is an engineering marvel! The ABS action offers two benefits over a traditional action.

Kawai’s action is 50% stronger! Under fracture load analysis traditional action flanges fail at 61.2 pounds of pressure. The Kawai ABS action can withstand an incredible 102.5 pounds pressure before failure.

It is well known our great state of Florida is amongst the most humid climates in all of the world. Subjecting a traditional wooden action to 90-100% humidity for 24-48 hours yields a 5% change in size. Exposing a Kawai ABS action to the same moisture only expands the Kawai action material by .16% making Kawai’s ABS action parts more than 30 times better than comparable wooden parts!
