ES120: Main Features
Kawai is delighted to announce the ES120, the latest addition to Kawai's ES series of portable digital pianos, and the longawaited successor to the extremely popular ES110. This brand new 2022 model features an improved keyboard action, a selection of new piano sounds, enhanced Bluetooth connectivity with support for the latest Kawai apps, and a sleek, eye-catching visual redesign, delivering Kawai digital piano authenticity within an attractive, compact, and highly-portable instrument.
Kawai's ES series of instruments are high-performance, 88-key portable digital pianos suitable for the home, stage, recital hall, or classroom.
The latest ES120 features the Responsive Hammer Compact (RHC) keyboard action, which has been developed to deliver the most realistic grand piano touch possible within a compact, lightweight form factor. The ES120's improved RH Compact action incorporates gradeweighted hammers, and utilises upgraded cushioning material that helps to reduce action noise when keys are released.
This authentic keyboard action is paired with Kawai's Harmonic Imaging piano engine, which reproduces the beautiful sound of the new Shigeru Kawai SK-EX and existing Kawai EX concert grand pianos with full 88-key stereo sampling and authentic string and damper resonances. In addition, the ES120 also features a selection of new electronic piano, strings, and bass sounds from the larger ES520, and even include a real upright sound, providing a strong variety of useful sounds for any musical occasion.
The ES120 offers a variety of useful features to complement its realistic weighted-key touch and authentic grand piano sounds. Integrated Bluetooth® MIDI and Bluetooth Audio connectivity allows apps such as Kawai's dedicated PianoRemote and PiaBookPlayer apps, or a wide range of third-party learning and recreation apps to be enjoyed wirelessly, and for music streamed from a smartphone or tablet to be played through the piano's audio system without any additional cables. However, wired connectivity remains strongly supported, with standard USB-MIDI and 1/4" stereo Line Out terminals providing useful options for the home, studio, and stage.
The ES120's 20W amplifier and speaker system delivers a rich, well-rounded sound with impressive volume and clarity, while the new Low Volume Balance feature is also able to adjust characteristics of the piano for optimal expression when playing at low volume levels. In addition, the advanced Spatial Headphone Sound (SHS) technology, enhances the depth and realism of sounds heard through headphones or earphones, while also helping to reduce auditory fatigue when listening for extended periods of time.
The ES120 features a brand new exterior design, with the instrument's updated control panel incorporated into an attractive polished trim line that runs the length of the keyboard. It's stylish yet strong body weighs just 12.5 kg, making the ES120 an excellent choice for gigging musicians, as well as academic and religious institutions. As with its predecessor and larger models in the ES range, the ES120 can be transformed into an ultra-compact piano replacement using the dedicated stand and triple pedal accessories. This complete package, available in Black and White finish, delivers a superb playing experience for the lounge, office, or bedroom, with an attractive, contemporary design to match the atmosphere and décor of almost any room.
Authentic grand piano touch and tone, excellent additional sounds, an impressive speaker system, and modern, convenient features – all housed within a stylish, lightweight case.

Keysound reviews
Yamaha Genos 2 Keyboard
From start to finish, my experience with Keysound was nothing short of exceptional. Delivery was easy, with my keyboard arriving as promised on time and in perfect condition. A good explanation of the Genos 2 was given to me on delivery and everything was setup ready to go. The USB they provided was helpful in exploring the capabilities of my new keyboard.
Any enquiries I had were met with prompt and friendly responses, and they went above and beyond to ensure that I had all the information I needed.
Overall, based on my experience, I would recommend Keysound for their combination of knowledge, reliability, and excellent customer service.
Korg EK50L Keyboard
Cannot find fault on service and prices. Will never use any other dealer.
Yamaha CSP295-PE Piano
Keysound are the most knowledgeable And helpful people ever I cannot rate them high enough. Our Piano was delivered on time and the guys told me at the time that the packaging was damaged when they unpacked the piano they found it to be damaged and told me before I even seen it. I had the choice to send it back then or keep it until the replacement was found. I kept it within two weeks. I’ve got a Piano. First rate service all around. I would highly recommend them
Yamaha PSRSX600 Keyboard
Absolutely fantastic service from Steve at Keysound. Expert advice, really friendly and helpful. Will be going back to store for some add ons very soon!
Korg PA5X Bonus USB Accessories
The service was extreme good in the item was downloaded to me almost immediate after my payment had been cleared into a USB stick.
No problem in transferring the information form the USN to the Pa5c
Yamaha CSP275-WH Piano
Couldn't fault it the delivery team took the old piano away and set up the new one in half an hour.
Yamaha PS500P-B Piano
Excellent service. Knowledgeable staff who are very helpful. No high pressure sales tactics. Straight forward and honest.
Installation team also excellent.
Yamaha YDP165-R Piano
Great service from knowledgeable people well worth a visit to see your purchasing, Staff first clay
Roland Fantom 06 Keyboard
I have purchased several keyboards from Keysound , and you always get a good service. You get a more personal experience, and they are always willing to take time to find you the best keyboard which suits your needs. After sales is also good, as they will help you with your new keyboard should you get stuck on anything.
Yamaha Pre-Owned Genos XL Keyboard
Nothing too much trouble and great after sales support and assistance.
Korg PA5X61 Keyboard
Great personalised friendly service, extremely knowledgeable of the products. I would recommend Keysound, especially to those who require additional support or aftercare with the products they purchase.
Casio CTX5000 Keyboard
Keysound were excellent. Other music shops take a generic approach about what people want and they have limited experience across multiple types of instruments. Keysound were interested in me and exacty what I wanted. They interpreted that and gave me invaluable advice. It was friendly, focused and specific. I would definitely recommend them and buy from then again. I also really like their view that buying a keyboard from them is just the start of the journey. They are there for in-person and online/on phone advice and help. I am extremely pleased with my purchase - which is not what I thought I'd be buying when I entered their shop.
Kawai CN301-B Piano
Very knowledgeable and helpful to make sure we got the correct piano for us
Yamaha Genos 2XL Keyboard
Steve and his staff were excellent. They spent a lot of time explaining and demonstrating various digital pianos and keyboards. After a few days deliberating I chose a different option to what I had set out to buy. The knowledge and service was second to none and inspired me to become a better player. I am very pleased with my purchase and looking forward to many hours of keyboard playing. Thank you
Roland HP702-CH Piano
I am so pleased I chose to visit Keysound Hinckley and purchase my new piano from them!!
I went in store to browse as I haven't bought a new piano in about 15 years, and the person who helped me (Sorry, I didn't get his name!) was so so helpful and knowledgable. I purchased my piano and within a week got the call to arrange delivery the following weekend!
The piano is amazing, but unfortunately has an issue with one of the keys. And rather than sending someone over to fix it, the manager called me yesterday to say they'll arrange for the piano to be replaced with a new one!! He said he would be happy if a brand new piano already had an issue, so he'd rather I have a brand new one. Honestly, couldn't ask for better service and nicer people :) Thank you so so much.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
Good customer service from staff who knew their product. Plenty of time given for testing each instrument and making up mind.
Yamaha Pre-Owned P515-B Piano
Keysounds service was absolutely Fantastic, I can not rate them highly enough. The Piano I really wanted was unfortunately discontinued, they called me to explain in person and then managed not only find a preowned one that was in brand new condition but they found all the correct packaging so when I received it I thought it was actually brand new! That showed a level of care and customer service I haven’t seen for years! They also immediately refunded a portion of the cost which was a bonus as I could then buy the stool l wanted ( not from Keysounds )
If all companies delivered care & Service like Keysounds it would be a far better Country for everyone! Well done
Yamaha Genos2 Keyboard
Excellent service would highly recommend. I have purchased several keyboards from keysounds. All staff are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Will talk you through any problems in finding things in a new keyboard and lots of patience.. would not shop anywhere else.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
There was no pressure, neither did we feel pushed to buy the most expensive choice.
The sa;salesman was also knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
We felt listened to and in safe hands.
Yamaha CLP775-B Piano
Very helpful visit to the store allowed the chance to play digital pianos from all leading manufacturers, as well as discussions with staff. When we settled on a product delivery was quick and full installation carried out by Keysound's team. Very happy to support a local retailer that provides such excellent service.
