Inexpensive digital

Review Date: July 6, 2010

Reviewer: buber1,

I'd been playing on a keyboard but bought this digital piano from guitar center. Didn't get a chance to play it in the store before purchasing it, because they didn't have one set up. When I got it home, I decided it was "ok" for the money. $[...] bucks but I only paid $[...]. The downfall of this piano is when you press the key(s) you can hear the loud hammer action which somewhat overshadows the piano sound. If you can live with that and just want a beginner piano, this isn't bad. I'm not taking it back. Will work with it until moving into a permanent place and buying a "real" piano.

Looks great! Sounds horrible!

Been playing the piano since I was a boy, I know what it should sound and feel like. No knock on anyone who bought this and kept it, this is just my personal opinion.

Saw an add for 4th of July sale at Guitar Center. I tested this piano at their store in Allen Park MI, sounded ok for the price. I gotta admit, the look and the price sold me. (Egg on my face for being cheap!)

Bought it, took it home played with it....1st thought "Man...i made a bad choice". Played with it again the following day, still sounded horrible. I felt bad for bringing it back to the store, but I knew i was goin to be unhappy with it in the long run. Ended up upgrading to a Yamaha for twice the cost, but I'm happier I made that decision.

Over all, if you dont care about the hammer action, the overall sound of what a piano should sound like, and want something that just looks good...then buy this! It looks great, but it sounds dull!

If you want a true piano sound and your on a budget, just save up a lil longer and get the better quality piano that you really want.

Hope this help you out =)

Good value

If you compare this digital piano to other digital pianos costing $1200 or more, you will find some faults. The action is not as crisp or smooth, the sound is not as good, and there aren't a ton of options. However, for the price, the features and quality that this digital piano delivers is in my opinion very good. It is solidly built, has decent (but not great) action, and has enough options voices to be a very good beginner piano.

I've also found significantly better sound can be achieved by setting the "brightness" to 12, and the "reverb" to 2. Make sure you save these settings, or they will revert back to the defaults after you turn the piano back off.

Also, there are some pretty good deals to be had on this piano if you negotiate. I purchased it at discount (new), and got some nice goodies thrown in for free.

There Are Better Choices

This inexpensive instrument neither feels nor sounds much like an acoustic piano. The grand piano voice is not very realistic, and the other voices are worse. The feel of the keyboard (what pianists refer to as the action) is also not very much like an acoustic piano. There is a certain amount of friction to get the key started, after which the key thumps to the bottom of the keybed with little effort, rather than the smooth even resistance of a piano.

For this price point, the Casio Privias are much nicer, both in sound and feel.

DOESN'T FEEL OR SOUND MUCH LIKE A PIANO

I HAVE PLAYED PIANO FOR A FEW YEARS AND JUST DOESN'T SEEM REALISTIC TO ME. THE ACTION SEEMS SLOPPY TO MY TOUCH COMPARED TO OUR TEACHERS DIGITAL.
