The Kawai GL-20 occupies an interesting position in the GL Series. At just 5'2", it remains a remarkably compact grand piano, yet its longer scale and more developed acoustic design give it a noticeably broader tonal range than is typical of an instrument this size. The bass has greater depth and definition, while the middle register develops the warm, rounded character that has become closely associated with Kawai grand pianos. Fore-and-back duplex scaling allows carefully selected portions of the strings beyond their primary speaking lengths to resonate sympathetically, adding richness and complexity to the upper registers. Combined with a tapered solid-spruce soundboard, underfelted hammers, and Kawai's rigid SOLID stretcher construction, the GL-20 produces impressive sustain and tonal body while retaining the space-saving dimensions of a baby grand.

At the keyboard, the GL-20 uses Kawai's Millennium III Grand Action, incorporating ABS-Carbon components made from a carbon-fiber-reinforced composite. These components are engineered to provide exceptional strength and rigidity while remaining lightweight and dimensionally stable, contributing to fast repetition and precise control across a wide dynamic range. Kawai also uses an extended key design to improve leverage and provide a more consistent response from the front to the back of each key. With its combination of compact dimensions, genuine sostenuto pedal, duplex scaling, solid-spruce soundboard, and highly responsive grand action, the GL-20 is an especially compelling choice for serious students and accomplished pianists who want greater tonal and dynamic capability without moving to a substantially larger grand piano.
