Introduction
Casio pianos are getting better and better. Just take a look at the PX-S1000, a slim, elegant looking 88-key keyboard (scaled hammer action) with a slick touch sense interface; and the keyboard seems to blur the lines between entry level and pro level keyboards.
The PX-S1000 comes with excellent sounding built-in speakers and can be powered using AA batteries which might give the impression that it is an entry level portable piano, but you can very much use it as your main gigging piano (be it for rehearsals or for the stage).
For the beginning pianist, the PX-S1000 digital piano includes scores of some of the best pop music ever written, which encourages progress and keeps you motivated.
The Casio PX-S1000 will soon be available in a red finish (PX-S1000RD), in addition to the existing white and black versions.
