I’m a massive fan of Kawai digital pianos, and the ES series has long been a great source of value for money. Kawai is stretching that value for money even further with the release of the ES60, the most affordable model so far. In this review, I’ll discuss whether or not the new ES60 delivers...
Creative endeavors are often expensive, but learning to play the piano doesn’t have to break the bank. I’ve tested various entry-level instruments to see how far you can go on a tight budget.
