<html> <body> Greg, You're probably correct but he said a model K2 grand, not a KG2. I guess I wasn't thinking it all the way through. Sorry. :-) Avery At 07:54 PM 7/7/2006, you wrote: <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Perhaps I missed something here. Isn't it a KG-2 series? About 5'10" or so? Those really aren't that uncommon so I'm thinking I missed something.

I did a Google search and found this: Kawai K2 AnyTime Series Upright Piano - Polished Snow White Finish - New For Autumn 2006 But that's not a grand. I did check the serial number you gave and their web site said 1970. Maybe Don Mannino will chime in here. I just don't remember ever hearing of any K model grand. I could be wrong, of course. It wouldn't be the first time! :-) Avery At 07:27 PM 7/7/2006, you wrote: <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Avery, I may have assumed to much about this piano being a K2. It says: Kawai K2  then the serial number 479818.  Seems to be a 1970.  Over all it is in very good condition. Belongs to a piano teacher whom I have tuned for for about 7 years. I have never had any problems with false beats until the last year of so.

I've never heard of this model. Is it a fairly old one? Just curious.
