[quote=NicMM]I have spent sometime on learning from websites such as Bluebook of Piano. I often encounter the message like “buy the best piano you can afford”…Also I heard that because the mechanical difference between the keyboard and piano, playing the keyboard actually can do bad to the hands of piano playing in a long run.
I have to admit, if it is for myself, I can easily put off such expensive purchase. But since it is for son, I kind of feeling guilty if I could afford it but didn’t buy.[/quote]
Um, if your son doesn’t like it, you’re really screwed because you’ll probably be in a predicament in which you’ll offer the piano free to anyone else that can move it themselves 🙂 Seriously, my parents were lucky that I wasn’t the first kid and that my sibling loved the piano. I played it a total of 2 years and hated it. My sibling played a total of 15 years, so it worked out for my parents.
you shouldn’t care about the first piano, unless you like to play yourself. Also, as a boy, I’m sure he probably will end up liking the outdoors more than playing the piano the at his age.
You don’t want to be that person that is selling the piano to some other person for 50-70% off of what you paid for…Because there are a lot of people in that category 🙂
