Video of the week - The Giz Wiz "Plays" The Yamaha P95 Digital Piano

Dennis Wunderlin, who designed the Giz Wiz logo, was looking to buy an 88-key electronic piano small enough for his NYC apartment. On the web he found many excellent reviews for the Yamaha P-95B Digital Piano. He went to Sam Ash Music where there’s a large selection of digital pianos set-up for customers to try. He found the P-95B Digital Piano provides an authentic acoustic piano playing experience at a reasonable price. The sampled piano sound is excellent and Dennis said the 88 full sized, weighted keys feel exactly like playing a full-sized piano. At only 12.5 lbs, and 11.06” x 58.15” x 15.03”, the Yamaha P95 Digital Piano doesn’t take up very much space. Really decent sounding built-in 4.5” x 2.5” full-range speakers are powered by twin 6 watt amplifiers. There are two headphone jacks so you can play in private or share with a friend or piano teacher. Along with 2 different acoustic piano sounds, there are 8 additional sounds onboard. 2 Electric Pianos, Jazz Organ, Pipe Organ, Strings, Choir, Harpsichord and Vibraphone. You can layer any 2 sounds and play them simultaneously. There are 50 built-in songs for listening enjoyment or for use as a practice/study tool. If you want to record your own song, there’s a built-in 1-track/1 song recorder. The built-in reverb effect offers 4 different types and the Chorus effect adds dimension and depth. But wait, there’s more! Additional features include a built-in metronome, a keyboard touch sensitivity control and a sustain pedal which is included. And there are ports for MIDI I/O. It's available in black or silver. MSRP $899.99, but it sells for about $549.99. Dennis bought his at Sam Ash for that price.
