Members pokymoonshine Posted April 25, 2004 Members Share Posted April 25, 2004 I'm looking for an inexpensive digital piano with weighted keys. I don't need alot of bells and whistles. Also, would like at least 76 keys. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thx in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members loozrrtuba Posted April 25, 2004 Members Share Posted April 25, 2004 We may need some more info so start here: 1) How much do you want to spend. Inexpensive is different things to different people 2) Weighted and 76 keys is RARE. You will probably have 88 and weighted, though 76 keys and semi wighted is a possiblilty. 3) Any particular manufacturers? Yamaha, Kurzweil, Roland, Korg, Casio... this list could go on. 4) what kinds of music will you be playing - classical, rock, funk 5) what have you checked out or know already - any preconcieved notions? this info will help We all see pretty partial to the Yamaha P series pianos Do a search in the archives, I'm sure you'll find something Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Mike, Since you want an inexpenisve piano, this will limit your choices. If you want 76 weighted keys for a real cheap price, maybe you should check out the Roland ep760 digital piano. 76 weighted keys, decent piano sound. Also, there is another choice. The Yamaha DGX-305, comming out in the summer, would be a good choice. It has 76 semi weighted keys, backlit LCD, tons of sounds, very good piano sound, and more. I hope this helps. These are some of the choices you have for 76 keys that are weighted or semi weighted. p120dUdE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pokymoonshine Posted April 28, 2004 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2004 The piano will be for a home studio. I just need a piano to fill in the gaps. Is it possible to get one (used maybe) for under 500? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, like I said, If you want a cheap one thats very good, wait for the Yamaha DGX-305. It looks like it would be a nice start for your studio. You can also see if they have a Yamaha DGX-300 on ebay. They go for cheap on ebay. p120dUdE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
