Thanks for video, tbh i am very impressed with my Casio CDP S110 sounds like a grand piano and with the weighted keys and texture, also feels like a grand piano, and iam humbly speaking not a beginner, been playing as a self taught pianist from the age of 15yrs old, iam now 53yrs old, and the Casio CDP S110 is great to play my Beethoven and Mozart sonatas and Scott Joplin rags, so iam very happy with my purchase, both Digital pianos sound great 👍
So there you have it they charge 150 more for a micro chip that cost very little to make, well i feel like a fool but thanks for the information and I will be sticking with my midi controller and a laptop
Hi Tony, my mum has artrosis on her hands, and she still wants to keep playing, the keybed from my P125 is a bit heavy, would you advise for a PX or CDP?
Yes, P-125 keys use the GHS action, and this can be tiring. I like my P-121 (same GHS action) for carrying about (very pleased actually) but I prefer my older P-255 for long practice sessions and solo piano gigs. The ES120 by Kawai should have slightly easier keys for her. It gets good reviews, but it's more expensive than these models in this video. If she needs yet softer keys, then a "semi-weighted" action may be the answer. These are really just sprung keys in most cases, but they feel better than simpler sprung actions. The Yamaha NP range probably has the best semi-weighted keys. I still can't get on with them for long (my playing is too ambitious) but I don't have your mother's disability - not yet! NP pianos used to sound cheap, but the latest model has an improved tone. PS Another piano worth considering (weighted action) is the Donner DDP-20. Supposedly the keys are very light, but I haven't tried it. It's inexpensive too.
