All About Choosing and Buying Pianos

[Figaro]

Hi JeanS


I'm looking at this brand as well as my DD's piano teacher has recommended it. Did you buy it in the end? How's the performance? Thanks!

Hi there, I am interested in buying a Wilhelm Tell upright piano for my kid. Has anyone have any idea on the quality of this piano ? Thanks

Here’s the latest from CASIO: PX850. It really blurs the line between the acoustic and digital pianos. See the reviews and try it out for yourself.


PX850 is featured in mypianosg.com

Hi everyone, hope to get some advice here.


I am looking for a piano for Grade 6 and above. Hoping to get a new upright one with a budget of around $6000. I saw a Julius Feurich piano selling at $8388 at a music school. Liked the touch and tone but hoping to source for something cheaper.

Any other piano models to recommend?

I heard the sound of WT too. It’s not fantastic.


Personally would rather go for a 2nd hand yammie for the same budget. no offence

I also got my daughters piano at textile centre Prince piano with the owner Desmond:)


my daughter was using yamaha u1 from grade one to 8 , since she is taking diploma lessons , we wanted to upgrade and started looking for pianos everywhere around last year...we went to piano world , piano master , imm , bedok , crstofori, kallang too but ended up getting our kawai upright grand with prince piano. The owner seems honest and easy going. We were provided with lots of professional information from him and did learnt alot.. Most importantly the price he offered were a good deal~ Though the piano we got was 30+years by serial number but the condition was really good. I recommended my sister , a piano teacher ,to buy from him too:) btw the after service was very satisfying.

and honestly , at the beginning i insisted in buying a young piano , but after i saw the 30+years one and compared, actually theres no much difference. The older one seems to have better tone!

hope this help !

My dd is using a 2nd hand Zimmermann which is more than 12 yrs old.

1-2 keys are sunken and one of the strings broke.

Will it be expensive to replace the string and repair the keys?
Any good recommendations to do the repairs?

Thanks.

If you are thinking about changing the piano then perhaps this is the right time to look around. Repairing and replacing wouldn’t cost too much (in comparison with changing to a new piano). I can PM you the contact for a technician.
