Title: EII Key Bed? Post by: who on April 12, 2016, 05:08:53 AM Does anyone know what key bed mechanism was used in the Emulator II?
Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: midipuppies on April 12, 2016, 05:14:00 AM I don't know the brand, but someone once told me that a Kawai K-1 was the same as the EII. I never did confirm that...
Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: ahaigh01 on May 25, 2016, 01:12:54 PM Anyone know if it's possible to find replacement springs for the keys? I would like to replace all the springs with new because I can feel they have lost some "springiness"
Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: razo on May 28, 2016, 02:19:25 PM It is possible, I replaced some broken keys on mine a year ago. The top C is rare and I had to customize to make one from another one. Springs can also be found.

Change all the springs, it will be uniform. Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: 80sboy on November 09, 2016, 08:48:58 PM I purchased a Kawai K1, low mileage for 99$ - swapped over every key and spring and its an amazing difference!
Sorry to the poor little K1 who sacrificed his life....but it was worth it Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: dr.c on November 11, 2016, 04:49:46 AM You could also have bought springs on internet...
Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: 80sboy on November 11, 2016, 02:54:40 PM Of course, but my EII arrived with many damaged keys, and kawai k1s being newer and probably not taken on tour and played as hard generally have keys that are in perfect shape. Just something. To keep in mind if you want a full refresh of your EII keybed, if you have mismatched keys etc...

does the whole Key of a Kawai K1 fits to the Keys of the EII? Title: Re: EII Key Bed? Post by: 80sboy on November 12, 2016, 07:11:28 AM Yes they are exactly the same.
