This is another quality studio upright. This time, made by Kawai in 1996.
Just like the Yamaha P22, this piano has soft pedal (left), bass sustain (middle), and full sustain pedal (right).
A very powerful and clear sound for its size. Great for live setting as well as recording.

FOR SALE - $1,800 including FREE tuning. Contact me if you'd like to come try it out.
Current P22 models are manufactured in Yamaha factory in Indonesia, but this model was built in 1992, back when Yamaha still had its North American factory. It is designed for home/studio use, and is one of the most popular pianos of its size (45").
I've easily spent over 15+hrs doing detailed cleaning, regulation, voicing, and tuning. On top of its warm and powerful tone, its smooth and consistent touch will be appreciated by both advanced and beginning players.
Despite its gorgeous walnut finish, the price is dropped due to its cosmetic damages from its years spent in a pre-school.
Great piano for musicians or parents of kids looking for high-performance instrument, that can be used for decades to come, for an affordable price.

UPDATE: SOLD!

I'm thinking about finally letting go of my beloved Yamaha upright in San Jose / Bay Area.
Sounds amazing and plays great. I'd love to hang onto it, but I have some more project pianos coming up in the near future, and need to make space for it.

A lot of love and work went into this piano since it was sold to me by an old friend of mine. Since I owned it for several years, I was able to put in tons of hours doing detailed work that I would never be able to do (or convince people to pay for) in clients' houses. The photos only show fraction of the work that went in.

I'm gonna post it here in case someone's interested, before putting it out elsewhere.
