Kawai ES8 RHIII action
RHIII is Kawai ES8’s special action that has ‘let off’ feature, also known as ‘escapement’ that enables players to feel real grand piano touch, plus it has counter weight underneath every button which balances the weight of middle and back of the keys. This feature that Kawai ES8 has cannot be found in this price-range easily.
*Escapement – the mechanism that allows the hammer to clear the string after striking, so that the string can vibrate (TheFreeDictionary). Player can feel tactile feeling of notch when presses a key.
Hammers of grand piano positioned horizontally therefore get affected by gravity directly, which enables faster key recovery. Hammers of upright piano are positioned vertically with springs (jack).
