UPDATED REPORT – June 1, 2026 – Digital Piano Buyers Guide – We have the most thorough and detailed digital piano reviews on the internet for all major brands of digital pianos from $200 to $20,000. We are digital piano & keyboard specialists & advisers to top musicians, piano teachers, studios, churches, schools and everyday families throughout the country. I am also a longtime musician, composer, & well known piano keyboard, organ, and guitar teacher, and I continue to work with kids and adults in various music education programs as I have for over 40 years.
I have taught thousands of music students in group and private lessons on pianos and keyboards of all types and I know how difficult it can be to figure out which digital piano is right for you. It can be confusing out there and the digital piano “landscape” is constantly changing. There are many pianos that are very good and some that are not good and we wouldn’t recommend them to anyone, and we’re not afraid to say so. But how does the average consumer figure out which new piano to buy or whether a used digital could be an acceptable option?
The answer is simply…ask us, Tim & Erik Praskins. We are digital piano experts and we know these pianos inside and out. We have played literally hundreds of digital pianos through the years and understand the technology and the fundamentals of these instruments. We get emails from all over the US and the world from people just like you who are looking for a digital piano that will meet their own personal needs or their family needs and they also want some expert help and advice on whether the prices they’re getting from music stores and the internet are really good deals or not. We are “pro’s” when it comes to understanding the “ins and outs” of digital pianos, how they work, what they sound & play like, and whether they are good for what you want and need.
Do yourself a favor and please contact us no matter where you may live in the USA, and we will be happy to respond by email, or also by telephone. Please go ahead and call us directly at 602-571-1864 and we will be happy to give you specific advice. We do this because music is our passion. We want to see other people’s lives improved and enriched like ours has been by playing a musical instrument…especially the PIANO, although playing any musical instrument is a wonderful thing to do!
I will caution you however that just because a musician and/or piano teacher is good at playing a piano or keyboard of some sort (especially a grand piano), it does not automatically qualify them to understand and review digital pianos. As an example, I have seen more than a few piano teachers and “musicians” who play well think they can evaluate digital pianos for their students and others. I can tell you that unfortunately, many of them really don’t know what they are talking about when it comes to digital pianos because they simply do not have the experience with most of the new ones out there. In reality, good digital pianos can be great (and even better) alternatives to an acoustic piano in giving musical satisfaction to the piano player whether they are beginner or advanced.
After 40 years of playing thousands of digital pianos and keyboards (I started when I was very young), working deep within the music industry with all kind of musicians, and playing some of the best acoustic grand pianos in the world including Steinway, Yamaha, Kawai, Bosendorfer, Schimmel, and others, I can tell you what will work and what will not work for you as far as digital pianos go because I am an expert on these things. I do not “sugarcoat” my reviews because a piano store or manufacturer is paying me to be nice to them or I have a store full of pianos I have to sell so I can pay the bills. Also some of the information and reviews of digital pianos on the internet are old and outdated or done by the piano/music dealers themselves, so the information can be very skewed or irrelevant.
We offer a complete BUYERS GUIDE of REVIEWS on many of the new digital pianos today by simply searching our “search reviews” section here in this blog with the navigation button above and searching the brand & model number you want, or the report you want to know about. Have fun and do your homework and then contact us before you purchase anything, anywhere. By the way, if you don’t see something on this digital piano blog that you would like to know about, please contact us as we will probably have helpful advice on that model too.
