A digital baby grand like no other
Fusing the elegance of a traditional grand piano with a more compact design, the Roland GP-6 certainly makes a statement. With its alluring gloss finish, sumptuous curves, and fine details, the Roland GP-6 conveys sophistication and looks resplendent in any room. The capabilities held within the piano echo the elegance found without. Like an acoustic grand piano, this digital baby grand has a lid that pianists can open to revel in uncompromised sonic projection. Also, you’ll never have to worry about LCD distractions. Simply turn off the backlighting, and you’ll have a space that’s just the piano and you. But the true star of the Roland GP-6 show is the Roland Piano Reality design approach. This technology comprises the keyboard, sound engine, pedals, audio components, and speakers, building a connected network between each component that adds up to flawless expression and unprecedented realism.
88 reasons to love the GP-6’s keyboard
The Roland GP-6 Digital Baby Grand Piano – Polished Ebony comes equipped with 88 Piano Reality Hybrid Premium keys. These keys offer playability that’s hard to distinguish from a true acoustic grand. Roland achieved this through progressive hammer action with escapement to nail a response that’s filled with the intricacies of performance. In fact, an advanced acceleration sensing technology will keep all your fast-paced staccatos or sweeping pianissimo notes supremely intact. The GP-6’s keyboard comprises hybrid wood and Ivory Feel materials, making for a classic acoustic grand feel and durability that will last for years to come. To accompany the keys, you have the required sustain, soft, and sostenuto pedals, complete with damper modeling. These components add up to playability that can stand up to intense classical solos and traditional pedal techniques.
Highly detailed sound system and 324 tones
When playing the GP-6 Digital Baby Grand Piano, you’ll be treated to room-filling sound whether you’re playing a Chopin sonata or your favorite song via Bluetooth.

The GP-6 comes equipped with five speakers: two spatial, one cabinet, and two nearfields. The speakers, coupled with first-rate audio circuitry, advanced sonic processing, and discrete amplification, expel glorious sound that’ll inspire at the touch of a key. And, with 324 tones onboard, including four grands, five uprights, 12 electric, 12 organs, and much more, you’ll hear every instrument you play in rich detail. What’s more, you can engage the Piano Reality Ambience to hear your music sound like its in a studio, a lounge, a concert hall, or even a cathedral.
