Piano Buying Tip:  key feel, key touch, and key dynamic range vary significantly from low end pianos and increase gradually as you move up a brands product line from their lowest model to their highest end piano.  So unless you are buying a nine-foot concert grand piano, all pianos, acoustic or digital, have limited levels of touch sensitivity (aka tone color, expression).  In the acoustic piano world:  a spinet piano has less sensitivity than a console, a console has less than a studio, a studio piano has less than a baby grand, a baby grand has less than a parlor grand, a parlor grand less than a concert grand.  Digital pianos are no different.  With any brand of digital piano models lineup, the key feel and key touch sensitivity will increase as the price and quality of the instrument increase.  In our opinion, based on our 35 year experience of selling acoustic and digital pianos and teaching thousands of students in our music studio, we might offer this generalization:

  • digital pianos in the $1000 and under range tend to be like spinet pianos (which acoustic piano manufacturers have not made since the early 2000’s and most piano teachers never really recommended them for their beginning piano students anyway)
  • digital pianos in the $1500-ish range are more like acoustic console pianos (consoles can range from $5K to $8K, but are difficult to find as most piano makers no longer make them)
  • digital pianos in the $3000-ish range tend to be more like studio upright pianos (acoustic upright piano typical cost is about $10K to $18K)
  • digital pianos in the $5000-ish range tend to offer the benefits in key touch and expression more comparable to that of an acoustic grand piano (typical is about $18K to $100K+)

When you are shopping for a digital piano, playing and hearing it in person will answer many questions about WHY a certain digital piano is at a certain price point.  One of our favorite buying tips we’ve had from some of our customers over the years:  to help you narrow your selection down, even if you don’t know how to play you can touch a few keys and even a non-player can feel and hear differences between pianos, play several different digital pianos in store starting in the mid to high range and move down until you feel like you notice a difference in the touch and tone then move up one level.  This would most likely give you an instrument that you or your family would be satisfied with.
