GL-50 CLASSIC GRAND PIANO

The GL-50 Conservatory Grand is especially popular among music institutions and professional studios. Experienced teachers are continually impressed by its stable touch and attractive tone that remain consistent over many years of professional use. Its 6’2″ frame is larger than most comparable conservatory grands, allowing the GL-50 provide tone that evokes the qualities of a much larger grand. In a versatile size that is ideal for studios and smaller recital spaces, the GL-50 is a favorite among skilled pianists.

Sometimes, the best role for an instrument is apparent from the start. The GL-50 Conservatory Grand Piano found its highest calling among music institutions, where its versatile size is ideal for teaching studios and smaller recital spaces. At 6’2″, it offers abundant tone quality and bass resonance that is perfect for professional teaching applications. The GL-50 has all the features that earned MMR Magazine’s global music industry “Product of the Year” award for the GL Series in 2016 — including the revolutionary Millennium III Action with ABS-Carbon parts that promises unrivaled consistency of touch and control over time. And, like the GL-40, the GL-50 features the CORE System that maximizes the reflective capabilities of the inner rim to provide greater tonal sustain and power.

  The Millennium III action

  The Millennium III Action features components made of ABS-Carbon, a composite material created by the infusion of carbon fiber into our renowned ABS Styran. ABS-Carbon is incredibly sturdy and rigid, which allows the creation of action parts that are lighter without sacrificing strength. The result is a stronger, faster action that offers more power, better control and greater stability than conventional all-wood actions.

  Longer keysLonger keys make playing easier and provide a more even response from the front to the back of the playing surface. A taller profile and concert-length key buttons make them more rigid to provide exceptional energy transfer and optimum power.
