Roland GP-9M-PW Digital Grand Piano Polished White

Quick Product Summary

The Roland GP-9M-PW is Roland’s flagship digital grand piano for players, premium homes, performance spaces and entertainment venues. Finished in striking Polished White, it combines concert-level digital piano technology with the presence and proportions of a luxury grand piano.

At its heart are Roland’s Piano Reality Modeling sound engine, 88-note Hybrid Grand keyboard and Piano Reality Projection speaker system. The GP-9M goes further than the standard GP-9 with self-moving keys, professional XLR outputs and a dedicated microphone input, making it a remarkable instrument for both serious piano performance and sophisticated entertainment.

What Makes the Roland GP-9M-PW Special?

The GP-9M is designed to recreate the expressive response of a concert grand without the tuning and maintenance requirements of an acoustic instrument. Its Hybrid Grand keyboard combines progressive hammer action, escapement, Ebony/Ivory Feel surfaces, high-precision sensing and haptic key vibration, while Piano Reality Modeling recreates the complex interaction of strings, resonances, cabinet behaviour and pedalling.

Its standout feature is the moving-key system, which allows compatible onboard songs, MIDI files and player-piano content to physically operate the keyboard for automated performances. Add an eight-speaker projection system, Bluetooth connectivity, microphone input and assignable professional XLR outputs, and the GP-9M becomes equally suited to luxury homes, hotels, restaurants, event spaces and professional performance environments.

Who Is It For?

The Roland GP-9M-PW is ideal for advanced pianists, professional musicians and discerning home players who want flagship digital piano performance combined with the appearance of a full-size grand piano.

Its moving-key capability and professional connectivity also make it particularly attractive for hotels, restaurants, venues, hospitality environments and entertainment spaces, where the piano can provide both live and automated musical performances.

Yes. The GP-9M features a motorised moving-key system that physically operates the keyboard when playing compatible MIDI and player-piano material.

Is a piano bench included?

No. A piano bench is not included with the GP-9M-PW and can be purchased separately.

How heavy is the Roland GP-9M?

The piano weighs approximately 188kg. Its integrated casters assist with positioning, but suitable access and handling arrangements should be considered before delivery.
