Ok....so my mother use to play piano when she was younger...and now she wants to start playing again...She will be moving around a bit...so she needs something portable, but still wants it to sound real nice. There are so many different ones to choose from....so I need your help in narrowing them down a bit. Give me your top 3-5 choices from this list:

So I can tell her which ones to try out. Again...she is not looking for something that has other midi effects and whatnot....she just wants a piano sound!

Thanks.
 
:eek: Yo Cowboy of cigarette fame:

Glad to help you with suggestions but can't understand why the fugly message like "Leroy Brown?"

For sound quality, I'd check out the Yamaha keyboards. I have a Korg stage piano and it's all right and it's portable and does a nice job. It, as the others, comes with a foot pedal.

Be bad but no need to be mad.

I'm with The Green One re. Yamaha. I bought a P-120 about two years ago for around $1k, and I love it. The thing has a full 88-key graded-key-weight keyboard so it feels just like a "real" piano. There are other special tricks which make it sound realistic (Dynamic Sampling, Soundboard Reverb, and Key-Off Samples). It has lots of built-in features, different voices & instruments, midi etc. The best sounding one I found when I was looking around was the Kurzweil PC-88 - it sounded incredible, just like a real concert-grand, but I thought the keyboard felt as if it was made of plastic, and the weighting was all wrong.

Good Luck in your search -
