Yamaha CVP409 Reviews

“I purchased this Yamaha  for the quality of the piano sounds”

I purchased the Yamaha CVP409 keyboard about two months ago from a music shop in Great Yarmouth. The keyboard
was second hand but had very little use as the original packing was still on the pedals and screen. I paid
£2650.
My playing experience was grade 4 piano until the age of 15 years and then playing occasionally on a Challen
. I then decided at the age of 65 years to try and improve my playing and started taking piano lessons again. My
instructor has introduced me to the classics and I now play Mozart & Chopin but have some way to go but really
enjoy it.
My Challen was now 50 plus years old and my piano tuner said it needed restringing so it had to go. That was
when I checked out your website and took your advice on going for a Yamaha.
The reasons for going electric are the normal ones: No tuning necessary, being able to play with head phones and of
course all the extra options not found on a standard piano but I was concerned over the piano quality but Yamaha
piano sounds are quiet amazing.
I purchased this Yamaha for the quality of the piano sounds but have found the other instruments to be just
as good. I have still not mastered half of the functions available on the instrument and you do need to be a bit of
an expert to realise its full potential ( The manual is 222 pages long ). The only features I would add , apart
from making the operation more user friendly are a touch screen and a reading lamp.
I must thank Graham Howard for all the help you gave me and pointing me in the right direction and will
recommend you to friends who are considering the purchase of a keyboard.
