Digital Piano: Best Price in SG for Korg SP-250

[chillimonkey]

Hi Everyone,

I am am looking to buy a digital piano / keyboard with weighted keys.

I am a total beginner at the keyboard, hanging only played with two fingers as a child!

I now want to take up the piano as a hobby, with an interest in classical piano.

I have set myself a budget of around $1000 +/- for a quality 88 key (weighted) digital piano. Brands . models I have seen include:

Yamaha P70 - great sound / great feel, low on features
Casio range - don't like the sound nor feel of the keys
Kawai CL20 - reasonable sound, basic features, good feel - not very portable
Kawai ES4 - Great sound / great keys / great features - way above my budget!
Suzuki SS 90 & 100 - poor quality keys
Korg SP-250 - good sound and good feel and features (sound and feel not as good as Yamaha)

At this stage I have narrowed down my selection to the Korg SP 250

Does anyone have any other recommendations for a digital piano around the SGD $1000 +/- range that I should consider?

Assuming I go for the Korg, can anyone advise me what the best price in Singapore is for this unit?

I apprecate your responses.

Thanks.

Regards,

Chillimonkey

You may try citymusic or luthermusic.

Bongman should be able to provide more detail.


BTW,
do you consider used Gear?

Hi chilli...
if you're who i think you are, i just thought you'd wanna know, the Korg Sp250 is a very nice digital piano ... tried it out at luthermusic, and the keys were very nice and springy.. quite impressed...

Thanks for the feedback on the Korg keyboard. I ended up buying a 2nd hand Yamaha Clarinova CLP 170 for less than half the price of the Korg!

I am now looking for a piano teacher to provide me with lessons at home (Bugis / City Hall / Bras Basah area) on a casual basis (hobby classical / not for exams). Any recommendations?

Regards,

Steven
