Subject:OT - New Yamaha Stage pianos

Hi,

Has anyone tried the CP300 or CP33?

It looks like the CP300 is the replacement for the P250. The CP33 seems
to have to same graded hammer action and sounds (string resonance seems
to be a keyword - the P250 has this also)

The CP33 doesn't have the built in speakers and has fewer options but
does seem to have the same action and basic piano sounds. Sweetwater
has them for around $1100. The CP300 is around $2200.
