KAWAI CA48

Our CA48 digital piano reflects Kawai’s award-winning heritage with its classic design and advanced technology. Featuring the newest “Grand Feel Compact” wooden-key keyboard action, beautiful Shigeru Kawai SK-EX and Kawai EX Concert Grand Piano samples, and a specially-designed speaker system for optimized sound quality, our CA48 offers an impressive collection of premium features that work together to provide one of the most authentic playing experiences of any digital piano in its class.

The Kawai Concert Artist (CA) Series is one of the most award-winning lines of digital pianos available today. As a beneficiary of this successful legacy, the CA48 offers a truly powerful best-in-class piano experience. At the heart of CA48 is the acoustic piano sound of the celebrated Shigeru Kawai SK-EX and Kawai EX Concert Grand Pianos. Our proprietary sampling and modeling techniques capture all 88 keys individually to provide the most discerning player with the very best in digital piano tonal quality. Working hand-in-hand with these authentic sounds is our “Grand Feel Compact” wooden-key keyboard action, the most refined keyboard touch available in a high-end introductory model. The elegant modern-meets-classic appearance of the CA48 digital piano is reinforced by the subtle placement of the compact control panel in the keyboard side panel, maintaining a graceful cabinet design that enhances any home décor. Drawing deeply from over 90 years of piano building expertise has created an introductory model of the CA Series that is capable of inspiring players of all levels for years to come.

Touch:

• The CA48 utilizes the brand new Grand Feel Compact wooden-key keyboard action. The GF Compact action has been designed to reproduce the authentic touch weight characteristics of Kawai's industry-leading Grand Feel keyboard actions in a smaller size.
  
  Tone:
  The rich, expressive sound of the Shigeru Kawai SK-EX and Kawai EX concert grand pianos is at the heart of the CA48. Both pianos are faithfully reproduced with full 88-key sampling using advanced Harmonic Imaging™ sound technology, to establish a new standard in digital piano tonal quality.
  
  Additional Sound:
  Supplementing the beautiful acoustic piano voices, the CA48 also features a modest selection of additional sounds, ranging from electric pianos and drawbar or church organs, to strings, human choirs, and synth pads, inviting musicians to add greater variety to their performances.
  
  Bluetooth:
  In addition to standard USB and MIDI jacks for connecting to computers or other instruments, the CA48 digital piano also features integrated Bluetooth® MIDI technology that allows it to communicate with supported smart devices wirelessly. Once paired with a phone, tablet, or laptop, CA48 owners can enjoy a wide variety of exciting music-related apps that enhance their learning and playing experience.
  
  Grand Feel Pedal System:
  The CA48 features three pedals – soft, sostenuto, and damper (with half-damper capability). The new Grand Feel Pedal System accurately replicates the position and individual weighting of the damper, soft, and sostenuto pedals of a Shigeru Kawai SK-EX concert grand piano to further enhance the CA48’s acoustic piano-like authenticity.
