Strengths & limits
In its favour
- 88 weighted keys with hammer action – the fingers learn the right force from day one
- Wooden keys instead of plastic – closer to an acoustic piano
- Three pedals (damper, sostenuto, soft) are included
- Yamaha’s entry-level grand; Silent version SC3 about €15,500
Against it
- Needs tuning once or twice a year – running costs a digital piano does not have
