I use it now for over 6 months and I must say I find this fantastic instrument! APRS having fought to bring it back home (2000 miles + 3 advantages climb!) I must say I do not regret the investment. I used digital pianos and until the gap is standard:

- First, the piano itself. It is beautifully Designed and commands respect. real wooden hammers, real strings, vibes, its size! logo! ...
His touch is unique, I have compared several upright pianos and tail and I confess that I prefer the PC. This is surely a matter of habit because it is usually a little heavier than others but it's pure happiness.

- Sound. The main advantage of CP is that it can be amplified thanks to a system of piezo pickups (one per string).
The natural sound is that of a real piano though it offers much less dynamic because of its coating. In other words, it is ideal apartment! (Qd cover can be removed to get even more volume). The bass sounded a little weird fawn because there is only one string. But you get done quickly.
on the other hand once you get that sound amplification characteristic and unique. A full, warm, wide as you can spice it up with a vibrato that is included in the preamp and a 3-band EQ. (ENORME!!)

- In terms of quality price ratio, I had the chance to buy the one abroad o cte n'tait not the highest. Today not only must be able to find one! but then a dbourser coqute sum.
Think hard, but I for one am glad that trs piano because it is the time where they make real instrument Designed to last (and I could not afford to buy one that is equivalent in quality to that CPET is also part of the history of contemporary music that have played the greatest above. (Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder ...). And like everything is rare is expensive ...

I waited long enough before to own mine. I t patient because that's what I wanted piano. I had the opportunity to play it in a conservative 10 years ago! I had totally forgotten and when the urge to buy a real piano came to me, I remembered this unusual piano.
But later the band Keane was a hit and handed the PC to the front of the stage ... and the price has soared.
