Touch
The CA49 digital piano utilizes Kawai's Grand Feel Compact keyboard action, which draws upon 90 years of acoustic piano craftsmanship to provide an exceptionally realistic playing experience. All 88 black and white keys are crafted entirely from long pieces of wood, with finely textured Ivory Touch key surfaces applied to assist playing control.
As with an acoustic grand piano action, the keys rest on a metal balance pin and move with a smooth seesaw-like motion, while the extended pivot length ensures a consistent, evenly-balanced touch weight - even when playing towards the back of the key.
The Grand Feel Compact action also incorporates grade-weighted hammers, bass re |

This is a discount on a discounted model on clearance meant to make way for the new Kawai CA401. IMO you would be very hard pressed to find a better value on a digital piano at this point in time.
Any input is appreciated.
I keep holding out hoping the price drops some more. I might end up getting burned like I did on the satin black finisht that I originally wanted. I don't think they've had it since around the first of the year, so I imagine those are long gone. Dark rosewood is a distant #2 for me but I could live with it. Satin white is a no-go for me.
I like the SK tone and that's one of the most important features for me. Action is right up there, which I can't test in person but I like the RH3 from Kawai. I would assume that I would like the GFC action better.
I wish it had a few more features that I could use but I'm not willing to pay 2x as much to get them in a home-digital piano cabinetry (usb-recording and line-out). The closest at this price point is the RP-107 but the tone is quite different from what I can hear in videos etc. I imagine the PHA4, although it's supposed to be a great action, is quite different from the CA49 GFC. I like the thought of longer wooden keys, even if it's their compact version.
