A stroke adjustment device for a keyboard instrument, which can finely adjust key depression stroke and hammer stroke to obtain sufficient controllability of weak tones during musical performance and make the dynamic range even wider. This device includes a lifting mechanism for lifting up and down a keyboard pillow on which rear ends of keys are placed, an operation mechanism manually operated for driving the lifting mechanism, and a driving force transmission mechanism for transmitting a driving force generated by operation of the operation mechanism to the lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism has a rotating shaft body rotatably provided below the keyboard pillow, vertically movable rack parts in mesh with gear portions that rotate in unison with the rotating shaft, and a lifting part extending over the rack parts and vertically moving in unison with the rack parts to lift up and down the keyboard pillow.
