Robert E – February 21, 2020

By far the most amazing Digital instrument I have ever had the pleasure to review. The touch is a little on the heavy side but feels perfect once I got used to it. Every thing on this instrument is over done. Touch and tone are spot on as it sounds like a S Kawai grand. Really. Try it yourself and see. The blue tooth interface is seamless and easy. I highly recommend reviewing this instrument before purchasing any other including acoustics.
