- Kawai GX3 vs Shigeru Kawai SK3 Grand Pianos - Main Differences and Demonstration
In this video, Colin - Sales Manager here at Richard Lawson Pianos - looks at all the main differences between two of Kawai’s most popular grand pianos: the GX3 and the Shigeru Kawai SK3. Even though they are identical in length (188cm, which is an ideal size for the home, without compromising on string length and soundboard size) they sound completely different. Due to the SK3 being handcrafted with higher quality components e.g. its air-dried soundboard, hand-pressed hammer felt and spruce back beams, it has a far richer and more colourful sound throughout when compared to the GX3. Colin demonstrates both pianos in turn, and this really shows just how clear that difference is: the SK3, with its wider tonal palette, allows the pianist to express themselves to the full, with the piano able to respond to everything that’s being asked of it.

Very informative video. Thank you 😊
Big thanks for the video!!!!!
You're welcome - glad you enjoyed it!
Just got my new sk3 last week! It sounds great just like Hamburg Steinway ：）
Could you tell us the rationale in getting the SK3 over the GX3? Is the SK3 worth it? Thanks.
Fantastic piano and review. Love it 😍
Glad you liked it!
Very good technical video. May I suggest in the future to compare the 2 by playing the notes to illustrate your point. For example, you have more sustain, play GX3, then play SK3. It's very possible that the recording will not render justice. Of course, the action difference with the feel cannot be transmitted...
Most informative. Thank you.
That's great, glad that you found it helpful!
masterful summary. thank you.
Really glad you liked it and found it helpful!
Great video, really informative
Thanks very much Shan - glad you found it helpful!
The shigeru sounds less harsh.
Another difference is that the bass strings on the Shigeru are hand wound and I don’t believe they are on the GX series?
Yes, that is correct.
