Hey there ya'll... I have been playing piano for a while (typically on my acoustic) and i also play guitar and some bass. I have been researching to get a good piano that i can use for practicing down in my basement (where my acoustic piano obviously can't go) and for adding to my recordings. I personally wanted it more for just playing on it, rather than recording. I have been looking at the Valdesta GX5. (Valdesta being the USA version of Viscount) From what i have read other places, reviews say it is not a bad piano. I was just wondering if ya'll had any input on this piano or company.

Another one i was looking at was the Adesso PS88

Let me know...

I've seen Valdestas offered by some online
stores, I've never heard of the Adesso before.
I've never played a Valdesta, but I would
imagine it is a fairly good piano, because
all manufacturers now use similar technology
and have similar performance to other brands
in the same price range. I think you would
have a hard time buying a bad digital with
weighted hammer action keys these days--
it's sort of like computers now; since they
all use the same technology, even an unknown
brand put together by a small computer
store is going to have similar performance
to a Dell.

You really would think he's got that reply copied and ready to paste any time ANYONE asks about a new piano.

They're not all the same. Period. Stop telling people that they are.

Sorry Groovy but I don't have any input for what you're looking for. Maybe Google can help find some reviews for you.

I would definitely recommend if possible that you try ANY piano before you buy it, or at least make sure it has a money-back guarantee if you're not happy with how it feels/sounds in your house.

Say, why don't you shut up.

Everyone is, of course, entitled to their opinion. However, sometimes that "opinion" is blatant misinformation. The above statement is a perfect example. What's unfortunate is that some people read this stuff as if it's authoritative without checking facts.

not all digital pianos are the same or even close to the same. i tried Casio px100 at a store the other day, the action of which felt terrible comparing with my Yamaha. the difference could be huge... so, be careful choosing your piano!
