How to Buy a Digital Piano

1st year students graduating to 2nd year will need a piano at home...or perhaps a DIGITAL PIANO. Here's a free guide to purchasing these marvels, with tests for finding out if your DP sounds as good as the real deal:  http://www.makingmusicmag.com/how-to-buy-a-digital-piano/

You should aim to get a piano that has "fully-weighted" or "heavy-weighted" keys to the touch.  Also to test for string resonance: Without making the notes sound, press and hold down middle C, the E, and G (a C Major chord). While holding down the C chord, play the C to the left of middle C firmly. You should be able to hear the C Major chord quietly, as if you actually played it.
