Advice on buying a piano.
Discussion
Hi all,
we were out exploring the wonder world of pianos: our daughter has lessons for about a year now and we like to give her an upright piano and ditch the 1983 electric Yamaha keyboard she's playing on now.
We found a nice (summer 1977) Yamaha (tall model) with an original Yamaha Silent fitted: sounded the absolute dogs. I found on tinternet '77 Yamaha piano's are brilliant and - if a peach - the ones to catch.
We also found a new B3 with factory fitted Silence. Of course this is 50% more money: 4K compared to 6.3K
Please share your thoughts.

Decent uprights are underrated IMHO, everybody wants a Roland digital piano... My dad got rid of his 70s Knight for a Roland and I really don't like it. The Knight had a great sound, cracking bass, and a really nice touch. Just can't get on with digital pianos, they feel like I'm playing wearing motorbike gloves...
Have recently acquired a Knight myself from my wife's parents which is nice (although not as nice as my dad's) hasn't been tuned in 15 years but is remarkably well in tune!
