This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
This board is a professional quality board at a toy keyboard (i.e. Casio) price. I plan to gig and record with this board for a long time.
Sound
All the sounds are great. Soiunds are very natural, you can't tell they are digitally reproduced.
Features
A pedal and power supply were included. All the features such as reverb, chorus, and piano tuner are great features that are usually found on more expensive keyboards. Features are easy to use and since they are controled by using the note keys, the features aren't crowded together or buried by endless menus or cryptic buttons.
Ease of Use
Very easy to use. i was very impressed that the keyboard sounded great right out of the box. It required no tweaking!
Quality
It is very solidly built and the external ports and jacks are high quality!
Value
I have been playing keys for 23 years. All I need is a good piano sound. I dont use synthesizers and this board is definitely not a synthesizer. It has two excellent pianios, a great Hammond style organ, great pipe organ, two great electric pianois. clav, strings and vibraphone. To get all these features I expected I would need to drop $1000. This board is a steal at half the price.
Manufacturer Support
The manual is so well written I have not needed customer suppoirt. The best support is a well done manual and troubleshooting guide
The Wow Factor
It has tone and touch you will fall in love with in a very sleak uncluttered design. I woukd take this board over a Triton any day.

Korg SP170 Digital Piano Customer Review

Overall: 3 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Sound
Sound was dissapointing. This is probably a begginer piano but it bills itself as a "do it all" model. Thats tough when the sound is not so hot.
Features
Only two outputs are 2 headphone jacks. Not very "Does it all" friendly.
Quality
seems solid enough but the keys are slow to respond and the action is very short. I would spend the same money on a Yamaha PSR series. Yamahas Piano samples are night and day better than this.

Musical Background:

Active Musician Recording Engineeer and Frontman.
