Standing at 49.5”, Kawai’s BL51 is a professionally rated upright piano that is fully crafted in Japan to an incredibly high-manufacturing standard. The height of the BL51 allows for long bass strings, which provide a powerful and clear lower register that compliments the colour and expressivity of its mid and upper range. The German Renner hammers give it a distinct sound from other Kawai models, but a sound that is beautifully expressive and bold.

This Kawai BL51 is in a traditional ebony polish finish. It was manufactured in 1983 but still has plenty to offer its next owner musically. It is the perfect next step for an intermediate student looking to transition from a shorter acoustic or digital piano into a whole new realm of musical possibilities.

Since the company was established in 1927, Kawai has been committed to producing the best pianos possible at the best value to the customer. While Kawai pianos have always demonstrated fantastic craftsmanship and a balance between tradition and innovation, it is in recent decades that the company has received well-deserved praise from the piano community. Kawai’s wonderful BL series is an excellent example of their impressive musical offering and workmanship.
