Whaletone Grand Hybrid Piano

Whaletone Grand Hybrid is the latest model which brings a few important innovations. Whaletone Grand Hybrid is an answer to the needs of those for whom the Royal model was too exacting due to its dimensions. Not losing a thing from the Royal model's character, proportions, slenderness, and characteristic line, it is its smaller equivalent owing to which it needs much less space and is easier to be transported while the best acoustic features remain unchanged. A system that joins classical mechanics with all digital possibilities indicates the direction in which Whaletone grand pianos develop.
