508
Spécialement conçu pour répondre aux besoins de ceux qui exigent élégance, haute qualité et durabilité exceptionnelle dans un instrument, sans pour autant grever leur budget, le piano droit décorateur modèle 508 est un instrument finement ouvragé, au son superbe, qui procurera un plaisir musical durable pendant de nombreuses années.

The 508 features our exclusive Ultra-Responsive™ Direct Blow action that offers extraordinary touch. Hammer heads are made with 100 percent wool felt. Hammer shanks and mouldings are made with top-quality maple.
To make the action resistant to climatic and seasonal changes in temperature and humidity, we pioneered the use of aluminium action rails, aluminium hammer rest rails and precision parts made of stable, low-friction ABS Styran.
L'utilisation innovante de l'ABS Styran dans nos mécanismes de piano est l'une des principales raisons pour lesquelles un piano Kawai maintiendra un toucher et une sonorité stables dans le temps, mieux que les autres pianos.
Approuvé par des techniciens de piano renommés et prouvé supérieur lors de tests scientifiques, l'ABS Styran bénéficie de plus de quarante ans de fiabilité éprouvée dans les pianos Kawai.
The most important sound-producing parts of a piano are the soundboard and ribs. The choice of materials and the manner in which they are assembled can greatly affect volume and tone quality.
Our wood technologists select only the finest spruce to ensure exceptional dynamic range and superb tone across the entire spectrum of sound. The 508 boasts an exceptionally large soundboard area (2,015 sq. in.) for greater tonal power and resonance.
The pinblock must be constructed and finished to the highest quality standards to ensure optimum tuning stability over many years of use. The 508 pinblock is made from the finest hard rock maple, cross-laminated in 13 plies to assure that the tuning pins remain tightly fitted through a lifetime of music-making.
The 508 bridge is made from select hard maple, individually notched for a clear, powerful tone quality.
Height is carefully set and matched to the iron plate for correct string pressure and optimal tonal transfer.
The 508 tuning pins are 64mm in length and manufactured to rigid specifications with nickel-plated carbon steel.
Our precision thread-cutting process produces a pin with tremendous “reverse-grip” holding power.
Back posts support the plate and help maintain its structural integrity over the lifetime of the piano.
Our laminated back post construction is designed for maximum rigidity to provide enhanced tuning stability and decades of reliable performance.
The cast iron plate is subjected to as much as 20 tons of string tension. We use modern CAD technology to match the strength and natural resonances of the plate to the requirements of its design. The proper combination of plate design, back post structure and string tension provides enhanced tuning stability for decades of reliable performance.
The 508 cabinet is built with added depth (24") to accommodate a longer key length for better control.
The extended 16 1/4" keys offer greater leverage at every point of the playing surface for a more even, controlled touch.
Our exclusive Cast Brass Pedals are extremely rugged. Made with a permanently bonded brass layer over an aluminium core, they are significantly stronger and more durable than conventional “capped” pedals for lasting beauty and silent operation.
The centre pedal activates the mute rail for quiet practice.
The "toe-block" design secures the piano's legs and strengthens overall cabinet integrity to handle the demands of rigorous institutional use.
Available in an attractive Mahogany Satin finish, the 508 is meticulously stained and coated to assure a beautiful and trouble-free finish.
