jasonlim9090 Neutral Newbie July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 I'm quite surprised there's a piano topic at this forum! Anyway, just to share with everyone. There are many brands of pianos these days that are even cheaper than a used Yamaha or Kawai. Their quality is rather good as well. So just broaden your options and go try more of them out!

Solar Turbocharged October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 I was told by my piano tuner that some expressions, tones and pitch cannot be achieved on certain exam grade pianos if one wants to go grade 8 and beyond. I just listened and brushed it off. Perhaps he wanted to upsell me. Wanna check..Is this true? The upright kawai piano I'm having now is supposed to be exam grade..

carloverguy2017 5th Gear October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 I bought Yamaha P115 that cost about $1000. Electronics but for ABRSM lower levels, probably good enough. Weighted keys. Can practice anytime of the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just listened and brushed it off. Perhaps he wanted to upsell me. Wanna check..Is this true? The upright kawai piano I'm having now is supposed to be exam grade.. I think exam grade pianos are just upright pianos which are 122-125cm tall so that the soundboard is tall/long enough to achieve the pitch/tones. I know nuts about playing/owning pianos but this is what i know from researching which piano to buy last year. The upright pianos that are "better" or the top of the range for upright can go up to about 130+ cm. So for example, @vid's k800 is 134cm. So similarly beyond the standard yamaha exam piano, U1J, the taller one is also YUS3 and YUS5 Mine is a 2nd hand kawai 125cm (cant rem the old model number). it's a almost 30 year old piano from japan. 125cm should be able to get u to grade 8.

Lala81 Hypersonic October 14, 2018 Share October 14, 2018 (edited) I bought Yamaha P115 that cost about $1000. Electronics but for ABRSM lower levels, probably good enough. Weighted keys. Can practice anytime of the day. There's definitely flexibility for these type of pianos. Good for kids who practice after they come home from childcare or what. my girl go kindergarten, so she practices in the afternoon. I've played around with them and they seem pretty good nowadays. But i think even Grade 1, there's quite a range of percussive effects they need to achieve the aim of the piece. I used to think that the first 2-3 grades of ABRSM is supposed to be on just fingering, but I'm surprised at how much u need to train the different skills to execute the pieces.
