Kawai Guitars website - an announcement
The website is currently enjoying a long overdue overhaul and update. It’s only a hobby for me and I don’t have enough spare time for all the other things that I want to do in my “spare” time, so updating this site may take a month or two.
The site had been hosted on a free service since I originally created it a few years ago and it was built using some fairly basic website creation software. KawaiGuitars.com had outgrown that set-up, so I’ve transferred to a new service and am currently creating a new version of the site.
Welcome to KawaiGuitars.com
This is a personal (non-commercial) site, focused on the Kawai guitars of the late 1970s and early 1980s. That period covers the KS, F, and Aquarius ranges and also the slightly unusual Rock ‘n’ Roll Star and Moonsault guitars.
Why have I set up this site?
My first real guitar was a Kawai (a KS-12XL). A few years ago, I thought I’d try to find out a little more about the guitar that I’d been playing for about 30 years, and so spent many unsuccessful hours trawling through the internet looking for more information.
I found nothing.
Actually, that’s not quite true. I found loads and loads and loads of “stuff” (much of which, I wish I hadn’t found!), but I found virtually nothing about Kawai Guitars.
So I set-up this website, firstly to store the information that I did manage to uncover and secondly to make it available to anyone else who might be interested. Since I launched the site in 2008 I’ve received emails from Kawai Guitar owners all over the world - people who were also searching for more information about their guitars.
Hopefully, this website has some useful information, some interesting stories and some helpful photos for others looking to learn a little bit more about their Kawai Guitars.
Please do get in touch. It’s great to hear your stories and memories of these great guitars and see your photos. If you have questions please check here first, but I’m happy to try to answer other questions via email.
