Hey everyone,
So, we finally live in a place where I can have a piano again. I am debating on whether I should do an 88 key weighted electric piano or an upright. (Don't have room for a baby grand.)
Part of me feels like an upright will always sound better, and I should be able to find one for free. Downside is it is going to go on our stairs landing (it's really huge), so the costs of movers to get it up there and a tuner may make this super expensive.
Electrics don't sound as real to me, but I could probably spend less on a really nice one that is weighted with a pedal than I would paying for movers.
Thoughts?
I am not a great player, but I enjoy it thoroughly, and I am good enough to save us a little money teaching my kids the basics rather than paying for lessons. (With the cost of lessons nowadays, it wouldn't take long for the piano to pay for itself. @.@
I know shit about electric piano brands/models so if that is the route people think I should go, I'd love suggestions on what to get.
I won't be able to get it until our tax refund this year, but I have it on my mind as we are visiting in-laws and fil just got a keyboard. I spent an hour learning "Let it Go" for my kids. XD
