Used Digital Piano
How Do You Find It?

You can definitely consider a Used, also known as second-hand, Digital piano if a particular model does not fit your budget or if you are not sure whether you would put the necessary effort to learn in order to justify the cost of a new one.

If well maintained, a Piano will still look good and sound good so you can consider buying a used one.

• Dealer: Go to your local dealer/outlet and check if they have some used Digital Pianos.

You may not get it as cheap as you would have wanted, primarily because of the warranty they offer for the used instruments.

An advantage you get here is that you can expect a few choices of used Digital Pianos if you buy from a dealer.

• Newspaper/magazine: Go through the classified ads section in your local newspaper or music magazine. If needed, place your own advertisement in the newspaper.

• Music school/Institutes: Go to a music school and leave your requirement and contact number there. If any student wants to sell his Digital Piano, he will surely contact you.

• Other places: You can approach someone who plays the Piano, he may have some references. Spread the word among your friends and relatives; they may know somebody.

You can do some of the following checks.

• Press all the knobs, buttons and go through all the features at least once.

• Check for excessive scratches and worn out markings on the buttons and sliders.

• Check the keys. They should not be broken or sticking. Play each and every key.

• Check the sound from external speakers as well as headphones.

• Make sure the wooden board is well maintained.

A little scratch here and there or a few loose buttons should not be a cause for concern.

Used models are surely not going to look like a new one. As long as the buttons and keys are in good shape and the sound produced is decent, you can definitely consider the instrument.

Usually, the more problems you find with the Digital Piano, the more bargaining power you get while negotiating over the used piano price.

But if there are a lot of problems, excessive scratches and markings, sticking keys, broken wooden board, then you should skip that Digital Piano and check out some other used Digital Piano.
