Yamaha CLP for beginner
on: September 02, 2013, 03:52:37 PM
For a beginner, which among the CLP-430, 440, and 470 should I get? I'm thinking long term (I don't want to have to change in 3 years, so I'd like it to feel as close to an acoustic piano as possible), and money isn't too much of an issue, but it feels a little weird to buy such a nice piano as a beginner. Are the differences between the 3 models really important? Should I go all-in and buy the 470 or be reasonable and go with the 430?

If you're thinking long-term, don't buy a digital.  :D

I don't have a choice, and my teacher gave me these 3 references

You might read this thread before deciding which CLP you want to get: https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?topic=51470.0      Also, you can find more posts on this in searches if you want to.
Depressing the pedal on an out of tune acoustic piano and playing does not result in tonal color control or add interest, it's called obnoxious.
