“With this piano I think I’m practising more than I ever was”

Good morning Graham,

Just thought I’d drop you a line to say thank you very much for all the help given prior to my purchase and to commend how easy it was to purchase and have the piano delivered, with this piano I think I’m practising more than I ever was with my old tired worn out electric piano, thank you.

Thank you again for a pleasant transaction.

Reviews

1) “My daughter loves this piano”

I hired the Classenti after advise from Graham, having explained that my daughter needed a good quality piano with which to practice and progress her skills. She loves this piano, and has already seen improvement in her dynamics/technique. I have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone wishing to purchase a good quality piano.

2) “I’ve been a very happy Classenti owner so far!”

I currently own a Classenti CDP3i, and it’s been fantastic for my teaching studio (I teach Piano and Voice, although my main job is an Opera Singer: I sing on most of the international large stages). I’ve been a very happy Classenti owner so far!

Review by Chris Turner

 

3) “The Classenti ticked a lot of boxes and is excellent value for money”

I’ve found the service from UK Pianos faultless throughout, all advice I received was extremely helpful and being able to get my questions answered by Graham regarding various models made my decision easier.

I’d have liked a Yamaha B3 Silent but it’s a little out of my price range at the moment, so instead of waiting for a while I visited their showroom, had a look at a few models and took advantage of their rental programme and ended up with a Classenti CDP3i. Let’s be honest the Classenti CDP3i is not the Yamaha B3, however for the money it’s nice, really nice! I’m no maestro on the piano but have owned several keyboards in the past and I quickly realised I’d find other things to do, if, all I had access to was a keyboard without a pleasant sound or feel.

In my opinion the Classenti ticked a lot of the boxes for me and I thought it was excellent value for the money. UKPianos have provided me with a quality service and above all haven’t at any stage given me the hard sell or tried to fob me off with what ever makes them the most profit. They’ve taken the time to understand my needs to ensure I get the best possible product within my price range. Excellent service before, during and afterwards!
A real pleasure to do business with and a business I feel I can trust!

4) “It looks fantastic”

Everything is okay, and fairly pleased with the piano.
It looks fantastic, which you cannot say for the Yamahas. No need to cover it up or hide it in a public room (which is where it will live). The delivery guys were excellent and carted it up to a second floor room.

Questions

“Where are the buttons for different sounds etc?”

Answer/ There is a button on the left.
Pressing the button and a black key
will select a different voice.

It is very easy to use. The voices are all
marked, so you know which is which.

 

“CDP3 or the new model CDP3i, what are the differences?”

Comparing CDP3 and CDP3i what are the differences? It seemed CDP3 is more reliable because it is made in Germany and Japan where are famous for hand made goods whereas CDP3i are made in Indonesia which I am sure about the quality in long run.

I am sorry to ask you so many questions as it is quite expensive good that I want to make sure it meets my expectations and needs.

Many thanks
Emily

Reply/ Hi Emily

The CDP3 is made in China.
The CDP3i is made in Indonesia.

We aren’t planning any sales in the New Year.

Most of the famous names in digital pianos now
produce their pianos in Indonesia:
Yamaha, Roland and Kawai, in particular.

These are the advantages of CDP3i over CDP3:

Clearer, more natural tone, and longer sustain.
This is due to new sampling, bigger speakers
(2 x 50 watts versus 2 x 30 watts), and a real
wood soundboard on the piano’s back.
The wood soundboard helps amplify the sound
and gives it more depth of tone and resonance.

Smoother and more responsive key touch.
The keys react more sensitively to touch.
This helps with note repetition and playing
fast, technical pieces.

Aesthetic
The cabinet has been completely re-designed.
It’s more classic looking, has a higher quality
polished ebony finish and is more robust.

Features
USB has been added.
The slow-closing lid is a nice additional feature,
because it prevents kids from trapping and
damaging their fingers. This type of lid is
usually only found on acoustic pianos.

Kind regards,

Graham Howard

 

“I’m looking for a digital piano for my six year old daughter who is just starting”

Hello Graham,

I have the chance to buy a 10-year old Yamaha GT-10 for £1300.

Do you have any opinions about this?  The electronics are 15 years old, polyphony is only 32 notes and maintenance might be very expensive if
it’s possible at all. On the other hand, it appears to be in good condition, it has the real upright acoustic keyboard and how advanced would
my daughter have to get in classical training before the 32 note polyphony became a factor?

Yours truly,

Richard

Reply/ Hi Richard

I really don’t advise going anywhere near a
digital piano that’s 10 years old.
Parts are no longer available, and repairs
can cost a fortune.

Besides that, 32 note polyphony is not enough.
I think also that £1300 is very overpriced.

If you like this style of piano then I recommend
for you the Classenti CDP3i.

The CDP3i is Classenti’s latest model.
It looks just like a real piano, but has smaller
overall dimensions.

The CDP3i has large, forward facing speakers.
This gives it a clear, crisp sound.
There is also a real wood soundboard on the
back of the piano. This adds resonance and
depth to the tone.

The key touch is fully-weighted and feels firm
under the fingers. Just like a real piano. The
responsive touch and 5 dynamic levels makes
it a suitable piano both for beginners and
advanced players. I recommend it for use
up to grade 8.

The CDP3i has 128 not polyphony.

It also comes with a 2 year Home warranty.

This would be a good piano for your daughter
to learn and progress on.

Yours pianistically,

Graham Howard
