I'd like to have a recital but...am I the only one who finds this idea intimidating and embarassing? I have difficulty saying, "Look at me".

One telling way is to strum the undamped notes in the treble with a guitar plectrum...just don't drop it under the strings! These notes should ring out clearly if the soundboard is good.

anna m, the Yamaha CLP-340 is a very popular digital piano among users on this forum due to its strong price:performance ratio. However I am also inclined to agree with susanmusic: consider purchasing a budget digital piano such as the Privia PX-130
