I tuned a brand new 'ordered-from-the-internet' Kawaii just last week.
Truly one of the worst instruments I have ever seen. The entire action
bounces with great gusto whenever any 1 note is struck. The only positive
thing I can say about the piano is that the pins are tighter than any
yamaha I ever tuned, and I tune for a dealer!<br>

I preface my comments by telling you that I’m not associated with any
dealer or manufacturer, and have no hidden agenda. <br>
I am very troubled by your comments. You don’t elaborate on what
“ordered from the internet” means. Nor do you reference the model # of
this Kawai. If the action is “Bouncing” the key frame should be bedded, a
task the dealer would perform during routine prep.<br>
Does ” ordered from the internet “ eliminate a local dealer and if
so would this explain your problem?<br>
When
you describe a Kawai as “one of the worst instruments you have ever
seen“ to this technician you lose all credibility. Ever service a
Kincaid? A Memphis Aeolian or Kimball Whitney? Perhaps this particular
Kawai is horrible, but let’s not condemn this manufacturer to a forum of
technicians whose experience I’ll wager is quite the opposite. <br>
