The piano is a beautiful instrument, but they can also be expensive. If you are planning on buying a piano, a piano specialist can help you understand the options available to ensure you find the best fit.
There is a wide variety of keyboard instruments, all the way from cheaper electronic options to Steinway grand pianos to cheap. All will vary in sound, quality and scope and the piano specialist team at Morris Brothers Piano can help you pick the best option for your needs.
Acoustic or electric?
The original piano was an acoustic instrument which relies on a small cushioned hammer hitting a string. Electronic pianos are entirely digital instruments that will produce a range of different sounds.
The main differences between these options are most certainly the price, but also the sound. Even the cheapest keyboard can sound like a piano; however, nothing compares to the full, rich sound of an acoustic.
Weighted or non-weighted?
The weighting of the piano’s keys also makes a difference when it comes to playability. An acoustic piano’s keys are fully weighted, creating a little resistance to your touch so you can adjust the volume of your playing.
Inexpensive electronic keyboards are non-weighted however top-line electronic keyboards can be fully weighted just like an acoustic piano. This feature too, will affect the price.
