Congratulations Steve H. on the purchase of this new Casio PX3100!
He looked at Yamaha, Kawai, and Roland pianos, but ultimately chose Casio because of the touch and tone.
Steve wanted to learn how to play piano in honor of his late wife Sherrie. What a wonderful way to honor and remember a loved one!
Casio’s Privia digital pianos are renowned for their authentic playability and lifelike sound. Now, the updated PX-S3100 brings a wealth of improvements compared to its predecessor, including a redesigned damper/resonance system, improved speakers, enhanced wireless capabilities, and all-new piano preset tones. With its sleek, glossy panel and unibody chassis, the PX-S3100 evokes a high-end acoustic grand in a svelte, modern design that’s not much larger than the keys themselves. The touch-sensor controls are revealed only after the power button is pressed, and they’re easy to see in any light. They fade away when powered off, leaving only a clean, seamless top panel. And thanks to Casio’s newly designed, fully weighted Smart Scaled Hammer Action keyboard, the PX-S3100 provides uncompromising piano touch with a proprietary key scaling system that reproduces the characteristics of each of the 88 notes, while ebony and ivory key textures ensure confident, comfortable playing in any climate.
Choose a piano that resonates with you emotionally and fits your musical goals. Remember that a piano is an investment that can bring joy for years to come.
This blog entry addresses one of the most important parts in a Steinway piano: the action mechanism. Simply and broadly said, the action mechanism engages when you touch a key and ends when the hammer returns to its original position after hitting the string.
