Does anyone have a digital piano they’d recommend?
I’ve been missing playing since I moved to my current place, and would like to get back into it. I’d rather spend a few extra bucks now and get a nice one that will last.
I love my Yamaha P140. It’s got a very nice sound and feel.
Doesn’t look like that one is made anymore. Maybe someone on craigslist though…
It depends what your budget is, and even then I’d really really suggest to go to a real world music store and try out a couple of pianos in the price range you’re thinking of.
Personally I love both the sound and keyboard action of Kawai digital pianos, and anything in their CN (entry-level) or CA (mid-level) range will be a great purchase that will last you for many years. But if you try out a few pianos you might find you actually get on far better with, say, Yamaha or Roland. It’s a very subjective thing.
I’ve been playing for 42 years now and I just purchased (for the second time) a Kawai ES-110. I’m sort of in awe about how good it is for he price. Feels awesome to play. My primary instrument is a Yamaha NU1X hybrid.
That’s been replaced with the ES120 on the current market fwiw. I hear that as a lightly improved version of the ES110 (I think mostly they added a little more padding around the keys) it is just better (as a piano) than everything else in it’s price range (though the Yamaha p225 is releasing later this year so it’s possible there will be competition again.)
