Yesterday ,I also bought same one in Turkey.(maybe after your good pictures).Kawai CN 34 in rosewood color.Today they carried & montajed it.Also these one made in Indonesia.After a little study with my new DP,I can say .a quantum leap after my yamaha dgx & yamaha piaggereo V60.Nothing seems wrong.Sounds good (tried only grand concert & mellow grand).Keys neither light nor heavy, near to acustic piano at my the piano course .Only drawback a little hard to reach usb and earphone jacks.They are at the beneath of keyboard but better than behind ones.
Now working on to find a good piano sound % reverb combination.

Very nice. "Like" smile

The lighting beneath the unit is a nice, if impractical, touch.

I used to pull the key cover forward slightly to hide the panel to help with the illusion (self-delusion!).

May I ask why would you be interested in a white piano? Is it a European thing? I always preferred the look of the polished ebony piano.

John Lennon had a famous white piano. I think Lady Gaga played it too. My question is why a black piano costs more and a rosewood or mahogany piano.

I always felt that the polished black ebony piano looks best. I know if I am buying a console type piano the only acceptable choice is the polished ebony (and maybe with dark red accents if available). All the other colors don't look as good and therefore costs less.

Evidently some people here like the other colors.

It's the finish type, not the finish color that usually matters most. Glossy black is a different material, harder to manufacture and harder to safely package and ship than matte finishes.

In the acoustic piano world, wood finishes tend to cost the most. As for black finishes, it is highly unpredictable. For example, in a brand like Steinway, gloss costs more than satin, but for another brand like Knabe, satin costs more. For some, it is the same. One maker we work with, Grotrian, has 3 black finishes at 3 price levels. On a mid-sized grand piano, the difference can be more than $10k. On the same sized Knabe, the price difference might be $400. Have fun trying to explain that to a family of blinking customers.
