    Excellent comparison.. I believe the Kawai GL10 also has a Tapered soundboard and full sostenuto pedal.
    However I believe the Yamaha does not, just a bass sostenuto and no tapered soundboard.

      @@pianelli correct. There is no such thing as not full sostenuto pedal :D Tapered soundboard is also normal feature. You can not put not tapered solid spruce soundboard into the piano. I recomend to not get to excited about marketing-technican slogans :D Check for your self if you are interested in product.

    Nice video, however really pointed into Kawai baby grand. I'm not saying all those Kawai features are not important, because they are, but there is really needed to point also facts as product consistency and wearing out the intonation and regulation thru years of usage. All my experience with this pianos point that GL10 need much more work after unboxing than GB1. Almost twice much hours work is needed. There are also rally big problem with dull "underwater" sounding bass strings. Those 15 single bass strings form A to H can sound really funny. Not important if the strings is longer if it's sounding like metal trash cover :D. In general GB1 offers more consistence, also in sound (more equal balance between bass, middle and treble hammer sections, but kawai offers really big keyboard. To be more precise this keyboard is 50,5 cm long comparing to 46,10 cm long in GB1 (51,5 cm is C7X piano), ... but you need to take really big care to control hammer catcher position because the wire if that part is bit to flexible and need to be corrected min. one per year. I thing there will be customers who find both products good for them, and it's really good that we have such diversity :)

      The Kawai has a tapered soundboard, a stretcher that is stronger and that completes the harmonic shape of the rim. It all resonates. The Kawai action is made in Japan and a steel reinforced keyboard strip that cuts down on key stick. Too many pros, IMHO, to pick the dated Yamaha. Especially re the action and hammers. Neither offers duplex, I think. That would help a lot.

    I'm from North East India. Planning to buy a small grand piano. Which piano has a warmer and richer sound without sounding tinny? Kawai gl10 or Yamaha gb1k?

      It depends only of regulation and intonation process. I have heard both GB1 and GL10 sounding ugly tiny and nice and powerful. Those pianos needs a lot of work to sound good after unboxing. Find good piano technician after buying the piano and it will sound great.

      Kawai for sure. Even if its not tuned perfectly the overall tone will ALWAYS be warmer vs a Yamaha.
      Also, I feel that technically in this comparison the Kawai is superior to the Yamaha.

      I'd go with what Sylwester Dmuchowski said as it was the most objective. Rich and warm are qualities associated with Kawai, however these are all sort of general ideas and everyone has their own personal qualities that stand out to them with pianos. Also, I've found in Yamaha vs. Kawai comparisons, a lot of comments will root for the underdog. In this Yamaha is the big company with the big marketing and Kawai isn't as large and people tend to strike down the big dog. Personally, I'd go for the GC1 with Yamaha or GL30 with Kawai. They're both just better pianos. The GB1K also lacks a movable music desk if that is important to you.
