We invite you to enjoy the beautiful Kemble sound of Kemble's KC173
Conservatoire grand- the result of a piano making tradition dating
back almost a century. Kemble's tradition is based on craftsmanship,
superior technology, design and the painstaking selection of choice
materials.
The KC173 comes with many tone enriching features
including a duplex scale (which tunes the non “speaking”
length of the strings and enriches primary tones with complementary
harmonics), and a metal “tone collector”. The tone collector
connects the back posts to the piano frame, and reflects the sound
energy back through the piano case to give a fuller and more sustained
resonance. In addition, the keybed is incorporated into the sound
producing part of the grand and the highest quality solid spruce
tonewood is used to make the soundboard. Lighter treble hammer shanks
(Barrel-shaped) further improve dynamic and tonal response. Craftsmen
sensitively regulate, tune and voice each grand to obtain the optimum
expression.
The Kemble touch
The use of its superb world class action, built to extremely fine
tolerances, combined with individually weighted and laser levelled
spruce keys, produce an extraordinarily responsive instrument, which
will provide years of trouble free playing. A sostenuto pedal comes
as standard.
Comfort and safety
Each KC173 comes with a soft close system for the fall, and a safety
stop for the 3 position prop stick. The music desk is at a comfortable
eye level and has 5 different positions.
Design
Available in classic black polyester, the subtle elegance of the
grand is enhanced with its profiled top, contoured music tray and
spade legs.
Durability and tuning stability
The Kemble KC173 is built to provide years of playing pleasure.
Its durability is assured thanks to the use of high quality structural
components and design.The rim is made from layers of select wood
glued together in special hydraulic presses; backposts are set in
a radial arrangement and fitted to the rim with exceptionally strong
dovetail joints. Lathe cut, nickel plated tuning pins are inserted
into tuning planks (made from layers of dense hardwood sealed against
humidity changes) in order to give enhanced tuning stability.
