Is Williams brand digital piano good?

[soulmach]

I'm looking for 88-key, hammer action, realistic sounding and feeling digital piano.  Unfortunately, I only have about $600 to spend.  I found a Williams Concerto digital piano for $400, which claims to have all the features above.

Has anyone tried these Williams brand digital pianos?  I am curious.

As for now, I'm still saving for a Yamaha, because I trust them, and have also played yamaha demos in stores.   I saw the $400 Williams, and my eyes saw a bargain.  Is it, a bargain? The picture looks nice, and the description in my catalog is very convincing, but may be biased I'm sure.

Thanks.

Sir, would you be more specific?  I tried the Williams Etude and found it to be a solid instrument, much much better than higher priced Yamahas and Rolands (and Casios, which are not in the same league, I would say).

Thanks for the advice.  Did you have a bad experience with Williams pianos?

That is great news!  I'm a little shocked by your testimony, but I am very glad to hear it.  I was expecting the worst about this elusive brand.  Thanks for replying, and you are right, I need to be more specific.  Here is the piano I am considering.

-------

The Williams Encore combines easy playability with convenient portability at an affordable price.  Choose from 30 realistic-sounding instruments.  Encased in attractive modern dark woodgrain and silver slab design, this keyboard makes an attractive addition to any home.  Optional matching stand and bench are available.
LIST: $600 - Guitar Center Price $399

I am including scans of the advertisements.  The Guitar Center is running these ads.  I go there all the time, and they haven't had these available for demo.   I'll go tomorrow and see if they've put one out on the floor.

Thanks again iumonito

Does anyone else have any testimonials about Williams brand?

Thanks.

I just got one of these encores.  I'll report again later, but does the job great so far.

Hi iumonito, How's the Williams "Encore" performing? I bought a DP in the UK which I believe shares the same innards as the Williams and have found it to be OK.
