 Wonderful budget digital piano if you get a good one June 23, 2008

I got the Casio PX-120 because it was the least expensive digital piano that met my requirements -- it's a full keyboard, has a very life-like piano feel, will allow you to practice with headphones, and -- with 128 note polyphony -- does not suffer from drop-outs in complex playing contexts. The keyboard instruments (two grand pianos, two electric pianos, a harpsichord, and a pipe organ) and the vibraphone are all pleasing to my ears. My worry with this and its Casio and Yamaha cognates were that a depressingly large number of people seem to report defective products in this price-range. It appears that M Williams was saddled with one of the bad ones -- there appears to be a tendency for the speakers to be defective in this model (although I have not seen anyone else report having problems with the headphone jacks.) Since everything that I researched that was within a couple hundred dollars of this unit also had a fair number of reports of failures out of the box, I decided to take a chance on this one.
So far, so good. I am delighted with the sound quality and the feel of the instrument. It would be nice if there were more attention to QC during manufacture of this class of digital piano, but it does appear to be a bit of a crap shoot. So, if you decide to get one of these pianos, you may well want to make sure that the dealer is reputable and will swap it out without giving you a problem if you get a bad one. If you get a good one, it is a real treasure at a very attractive price point.
Unbelievably high quality for the price point January 3, 2009

As a university music student, my main use for this instrument is for practicing with headphones for long periods of time. My goal was to find the instrument within my budget that would most accurately reproduce the feel of an acoustic piano, as practicing for hours on non-weighted keys was really hurting my finger development and subsequent transitions to the real thing.
After reading a few reviews, I decided to roll the dice and try the PX-120... and I was not disappointed. The action is firm and realistic, and doesn't feel cheap or only semi-weighted. These keys are heavy and feel just like a real acoustic piano. The keyboard itself is amazingly slim, but not flimsy or annoyingly small.
My only small gripe is the quality of the built-in speakers, something I knew was going to be the biggest drawback of this particular keyboard. When practicing with headphones (or, I assume, some sort of external amplifier), the tones are actually quite good and some of the best I've heard. Unfortunately, the speakers don't seem to do a very good job of conveying this, as the tone (especially around the middle of the keyboard) sounds a bit flat or muddled. However, it's not distractingly bad if you're not too concerned about this, and as I said it is absolutely no reflection on the quality of the patches themselves.
Short version: This instrument can't be beat for the price, feels just like an acoustic piano, and is extremely well made, though the one feature they obviously cheaped out on is the on-board speakers.
Highly recommended! Five stars.
A perfect digital piano for a novice or a professional. June 10, 2009

A full-size, weighted key keyboard was long overdue for me, and I couldn't be happier with the Casio PX-120. I mulled over several choices while shopping for a digital piano, and assumed I'd be spending at least a thousand dollars on something. I wasn't really looking forward to dropping that kind of money in an afternoon, but I needed an instrument that could accommodate rehearsals and professional performances, that felt light enough under my fingers to produce realistic sound whether playing quietly or loudly. Needless to say I was delighted when I rested my hands on this keyboard and realized that not only was it absolutely perfect, but that it was one of the least expensive full-size weighted key keyboards available!
Some of the great features of this keyboard include:
- The action on the weighted keys. It actually differs from the high notes to the lower notes, just as it would on a real piano, and the keys respond to a light or heavy touch in the most realistic way I've ever felt on a digital instrument. Other digital pianos I tried almost felt sticky or dull, and this feels just like a real piano.
- The sound quality of the tones is very realistic- not so much for the other instrument sounds included in the model, but that's not what you buy it for. You buy it for the piano sounds, and I've found it to be rich and authentic.
- It has speakers. Some digital pianos don't include speakers and require output to an amp. While an audiophile might not be satisfied with any keyboard speakers, for built-ins, this instrument provides fine sound.
- It's beautiful. I mean, look at it!
Sorry...I'm a little biased. I'm still on the "I just bought a new instrument" high, but I love it and I can't say enough good things about it. If you're on the fence, please take my word that this is a really great buy for the money, and it sounds lovely. I was so happy to get it home that I hugged it when I took it out of the box. I wish I was kidding. : )
Fantastic for the price June 11, 2009

The Casio Privia PX-120 is a perfect budget digital piano. I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about the feel between digital and acoustic pianos and I must say that the PX-120 does an outstanding job replicating the sound and feel of a real grand piano. There may not be many fancy features but it gets the job done. I'm a little upset how there is no 1/4" audio output or no USB output as well but I'll live.
Overall, the Privia PX-120 is a solid digital piano for any player of all skill levels.
Extremely Pleased with Casio PX120 Privia! February 3, 2009
P. Nowak (Sumter, SC USA)
We bought the Casio PX120 Privia Digital Piano mainly for our 6 year old daughter, who has been asking to play piano since she was two years old. We do not have the space or weight allowance for a real piano and needed the next best thing. We researched several months for "weighted key" digital pianos and are very pleased with the look, size (small and lightweight) and sound of this piano - perfect for our beginner!
