The CA-401 B is a very capable entry point into Kawai's premium digital piano line. It nails the feel of an acoustic piano thanks to the Grand Feel action, and the sound is surprisingly good for the price. This is a fantastic choice for serious beginners and intermediate players wanting a realistic piano experience without the acoustic piano's hassles.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Kawai action generally feels a bit heavier and more nuanced, with a slightly more pronounced 'let-off' than the Yamaha GH3, catering to players who prefer a more traditional acoustic piano feel.
Bluetooth MIDI is functional, but it's best to use the USB connection for the most stable and low-latency connection with iOS devices or a DAW.
The Soft pedal function offers a standard softening effect; there are no user-adjustable parameters or custom settings for its intensity.
