P Series: For the Spontaneous

Slim, easy to carry and extremely versatile at the same time, our P Series pianos are ideally suited for those who like to take their music on the road - whether that's rehearsing in studios, playing local pub gigs, or travelling to uni and back.

P-145 Piano

Despite its compact measurements, the P-145 model dazzles with a high-quality dynamic sound made possible by our Pure CF Sound Engine. The piano's 88-note keyboard offers a natural touch and authentic weighting and motion, similar to an acoustic piano. The built-in speaker system provides brilliant sound wherever you play!

CSP-150 Clavinova Piano

Playing the CSP-150 Clavinova brings the fun to music. Its GH3X keyboard faithfully reproduces the touch of an acoustic piano – from the heavy feel in the lower register to the lighter touch in the upper octaves. Playing fast passages never felt so good! And, by utilising the Smart Pianist app (for iOS and Android devices), you can start playing your favourite songs straight away while also enjoying accompaniment from a dynamic backing band and choosing from many other functions.

NU1X AvantGrand Piano in Apartment Living Room

AvantGrand: When Only The Best Will Do

AvantGrand Hybrid Pianos represent the perfect marriage of traditional craftsmanship and digital innovation. Within the elegant cabinet of the NU1X lives a true acoustic piano hammer action, offering the authentic playing experience previously only felt when playing an upright instrument.

NU1X houses numerous digital features along with iOS app connectivity - the Smart Pianist app (for iOS devices). The NU1X damper pedal allows for subtle sound changes, just like a grand piano pedal would, so that you can use the same half-pedal techniques you would with a concert grand, for detailed control over sustain and resonance.
