Yamaha CLP-200 / CLP200 ??

[dhollmusik]

Hi all.

I'm trying to find information on the Yamaha Clavinova CLP-200 digital piano, but even after more than one hour of searching Google, I find nothing.

Not to be confused with the current CLP-200 series:

Rather, I'm talking about the 76-key digital piano released in 1986, of which I've at least found a mention here:

The information I would like would be:

- does it sound any good? 1986 was very early days of digital piano...
- does it use FM-synthesis (as early-Clavinovas did) or samples?
- weighted or semi-weighted?
- midi-out?
- average used market value?


Thanks in advance for any information.

Here's the manual. I really doubt this woud be worth much at all, probably any $200 Casio would be a better buy.

Cheers for the reply. I decided not to get it. The guy only wanted €50 but it had some broken keys and tuning issues. I think I'll save for a nice Farta or Döpfer 88-key midi keyboard and use a sound module.
