People often visit the store to view the various selections, which include keyboards, traditional pianos, and digital pianos. Most customers are impressed by the variety of digital pianos for sale in my store and more often than not, I provide my expertise on this particular type of musical instrument. If you have been playing around with the idea of buying a digital piano, I can assure you that it is not a bad idea at all.
The massive size and cost of acoustic or traditional pianos put them out of reach for large numbers of individuals who want to play these instruments. For seasoned or veteran piano players who perform on a regular basis, traveling back and forth with their pianos is near to impossible. Digital pianos are known as the next best thing when it involves the aforementioned situations and here is why:
Console vs. Stage
There are two options available when you are considering digital pianos for sale – console and stage. A console piano is normally used in a home and it looks more like an acoustic piano, whereas a stage piano, also known as a slab piano, looks similar to a keyboard and is constructed for players who prefer portable units. Both console and stage share the same sounds and features, but differ in terms of size and design.
Action
The majority of digital pianos have 88 keys, which are similar to acoustic pianos. Digital pianos with weighted keys tend to have a realistic piano feel to them and their hammer action replicates real pianos even better. I often advise my customers to test a keyboard and think about whether the resistance is too heavy or too light for them. Keep in mind that an artificial heavy action tends to cause fatigue to set in quicker seeing that they need to be played with more force.
Sound Quality
Most brands mainly obtain their digital samples from premium acoustic pianos, thus, the digital pianos for sale normally emit good quality sounds. When you are shopping for a digital piano, I would advise that you test some of the built-in demo songs and listen carefully to how they sound. Of course, you need to test several different digital pianos in order to decide which one suits your ears the best. This is a great tip to buy a digital piano, because the built-in demo songs are designed by using intricate sounds that are often difficult to replicate.
Amplification
Even though most digital pianos consist of built-in speakers and amplifiers, their quality differ from one brand to the other. Prior to purchasing the digital piano, you need to establish where you will place it and how you will use it. Loud internal speakers are ideal for open-space environments, but they would be excessive for a small room such as your own living room or apartment. Speakers add weight to the digital piano, therefore, if you need to move the piano around frequently, you may want to consider if it is worth having speakers.
Price Tag
Digital pianos for sale range from hundreds to thousands of dollars, and primarily, the price depends largely on the digital piano’s qualities:
– How convincing are the piano sounds?
– Is there a need for a separate speaker or amplifier?
– Do the keybeds feel realistic enough?
– Is the key resistance too heavy or light?
– How good is the quality of the interior and exterior?
As with any significant purchases, I recommend that you conduct as much homework as possible regarding the digital pianos that you are interested in buying. I often avoid settling for the first item that I come across, particularly when I know there are so many exciting types, sizes, designs, and styles out on the market.
