Excellent affordable starter piano that is suitable for lessons
Good acoustic piano key action. Enough power for a bedroom or den - plus this is not a toy.
Stereo sound is only found on the primary piano sound sample. Tonal quality is rather dull, until you really "get into" the keys.
Posted 1 year ago - When meantioning that you own a Casio digital piano, most people would assume you are speaking on a toy with hundreds of voices that is powered by batteries. This is not the case at all, and indeed Casio is a major contender in the digital piano market. What separates this model from the higher offerings from Casio is the limited voices ( only 5 sound samples) and limited volume output from the 2 oval speakers, which are mounted on the top near the rear - wall reflection does help the sound. Speaking of sound, this model has a rather subdued tonal character, yet set the key action sensitivity or simply play hard - and the sound comes alive. Touch sensitivity and reverb level are easy to adjust, and truly enhances the sound. Included is a simple "stomp box" like sustain pedal, but this unit accepts standard sustain pedals that sell for affordable prices and I'd strongly recommend one. At the base price, no stand is included - but this is a light unit for a hammer action instrument, so a basic X stand will do. What makes this digital piano attractive is that for the price, it is not a toy - it is a true musical instrument. Those who are experienced at the piano will want more stereo piano samples (after all, an acoustic piano IS stereo when you are at the keyboard), but for those who are just starting - this will do the job... and the headphone jack will be a blessing for the rest of the family!
