All About Choosing and Buying Pianos
-
I am very new to piano. My son has just taken up G1 lesson and the piano teacher had recommended us to purchase the following two piano brands:
. Kaiwaii, Japan
. Heilmann, Europe
I am wondering which one to look up and did anyone know about ‘Pearl River’. Can anyone share like the brand to look up for, the pricing and the model that is suitable for examination for G1 (my son only own a electronic keyboard).
Thank you. -
Pearl River is from China, has been around for a long time. It is a rather decent piano but it doesn’t last for long (as in more than 10 years) as the sound gets rather “jang-jang” and won’t sound like what it started off as. My personal view

I dislike the sound. Do not worry about the piano lasting because nothing can last more than 10 years in this climate. Unless it sits in an air-conditioned room, with all windows closed, permanently. -

I bought a x-hand yamah U3. It was probably 30+ years, sounds great (mellow, not sharp) and we love it. It was pure joy listening to my children play on it.

Seem like that are a few parents in here either get the U3 (Brand New) or HL125 (Brand New). I also had been Ioing around those 2nd hand piano shop & HL 125 see see look look.
In general, when you heard 2nd hand piano & then after that hear the new piano, they are completely different. :boogie: -

My experience is a bit different. My Yamaha (which my parents bought 20+ years ago when I was a student) is still going very strong. It doesn't live in an air-con room and the windows are always open. We tune it regularly and make sure the heater is always on.jce:
