Okay hear me out.
Ever since I went to Melaka for my foundations, I've been away from my classical piano for gazillion years. I went back home recently last semester break and I again suddenly realized how much i love/enjoy playing my piano. It was a passionate hobby before I came down to Melaka. Now semester break is finally over and i feel like kicking myself for not being able to play the piano. (shit my skillz has dropped tremendously, it's a pain!!)
THUSSS,
I need a damn digital piano.
I'm looking for something practical for apartment use. Something that feels like the "real thing". I don't want extraordinary features, but rather something good that'll "mimic" the "real piano". I'm too new when it comes to this, so i don't know which brand/model to hunt for. Any suggestions? I cant give you a budget atm because i don't know how much i need to spend to get what i want.
Thanks!

QUOTE(Everdying @ Feb 9 2008, 09:56 PM) if you want something that feels almost like the real thing, be prepared to spend at least RM1000. cheapest usually is M-Audio. 2 models have full weighted keys. Keystation Pro88. ProKeys 88. the cheapest one is the Keystation 88es, which has semi weighted keys. smx electronics in berjaya times square carries them. well, RM1000 is very very reasonable. I was planning to spend about Rm2000 on it. (perhaps even considering selling my old classical piano since i most likely won't be frequently using it anymore). Any other suggestions for RM2000 range?

QUOTE(hanhanhan @ Feb 10 2008, 11:19 AM) perhaps yamahas have the weighted keys but a clavinova could be around few thousand.. how about 2nd hand stuff? ur more into classical piano? yeah. i'm into classical piano. Unfortunately due to my tertiery studies i cant seem to "afford" a full upright classical piano for the rented apartment. Hence, i considered digital piano.

whoa thanks alot. I thought this thread was dead due to inactivity. I did not expect such replies at all.
Anyway, I own a relatively good Kawai Upright piano. I think my concern is space. Am i right for thinking that only digital pianos would fit the criteria of space conservation? My dad thinks it's ridiculous to transport the entire piano to my apartment. LOL.
I would definitely prefer an acoustic upright piano to a much inferior digital piano. but i don't know if all the "hassle" would worth going for.
Price is fine i guess, i can still afford RM3000-4000.
Again, much thinking is still needed. :headache:
