Another important point is the Millennium III keyboard. When choosing a piano in a shop it is not possible to really compare two pianos if they are not in exactly the same position and do not have the same preparation. This is even more true if the pianos you want to compare are found in different shops. Furthermore, the acoustic in your home will be different from that in the shop, so a piano may sound very good in the shop and terrible in your home and vice versa. For this reason I decided to rely on choosing the best and uniform keyboard, with the same action across different pianos, for the price I wanted to afford.
I recently got to play a GL-20 side-by-side with a GX-2 and an SK-3, and I was pleasantly surprised that all three, aside from tuning, sounded remarkably similar in tone.
Happy to say I own a GL-20 (in Ebony Satin). If anyone is on the fence between this and the GL-10 get the GL-20. The action is WAY deeper more of a grand. The GL-10 is fantastic too, having owned the GL-10 initially and changing it for the GL-20 I can say the action is a big difference in just the extra 2 inches in size.
would have like to hear some details about where the piano is manufactured (in every video). Also about what pianos it is direct competing with. You know, useful information.....
I am the owner of a Kawai GL-30. I bought it three years ago because the GL-20 wasn't available and because I preferred the deeper tone of the bass section of the keyboard compared to the GL-10. After three years I can say that the sound has improved and is characteristically very sweet. I also appreciate the feel of the keyboard under my fingers, compared to a Yamaha half grand available at my school. I would like to know the differences between GL-20 and GL-30 because I read some comments years ago claiming that the GL-20 is better than the GL-30. It is true?
Side by side is not always possibile, unfortunately. Sellers do not usually have a GL10 side by side with a GL20 or a GL30, not to say most other comparable pianos😮. This is why I decided to rely on video presentations and comments from experts and pianos owners.😊

Hi, how was your experience on the different key surfaces, acrylic vs Neotex? Is the Neotex really worth it?

Sounds great

GL-30 is made in Japan; GL-10 and GL-20 are made in Kawai's Indonesian Factory.
Yes, I know, but my intention was to find out which piano has the better sound, GL-20 or GL-30?
@@guidodemarcoroma play them side by side, one after another, draw your own conclusion. To me, the GL-30 sounds better.

Which piano is better, GL20 or GL-30?
How does the GL-20 compare to the Yamaha GC-1? Also is the GL-10 made in the same place as the GL-20? Thank You .
