Yeah I bought a guitar to use at school off Craiglist, and also a clarinet. Both times I went and met the people and tried the instruments. Craigslist is not like a mail order catalogue, or like Ebay. You go and pick the item up and if you dont like it when you see it, just say you don't want it anymore. Pretty simple.

Default Looking to get into Piano

Hello, new here, and I am looking into get a keyboard to practice with. I am looking for as authentic to a grand piano sound and feel I can get without spending too much.

88-Keys, Weighted and such. No other features necessary.

Could I get any suggestions? I would appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you for your time.

You could get some pretty great deals if you would not require the full 88 keys.

I guess I won't be getting a very good deal then.

Anyways, this has been the most recommended keyboard for me:

.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/677590-REG/Yamaha_DGX_640_C_DGX_640_Portable_Grand_Piano.html]Yamaha DGX-640 Portable Grand Piano Keyboard (Cherry) DGX640C

(I can't post links yet...so yeah...)

It seems to have many features I don't care for, but it is the only one I have found with the ones I do want at the lowest price I've seen. Would you recommend this? Has anyone here owned one b4? How was the main voice? And the feel of the keys?

I've played acoustic guitar for almost 3 years now, and I seem to be running out of good songs to learn specifically for acoustic. I'm considering buying an electric guitar.
Any tips on what guitar to buy? Im looking for reasonably cheap (£300ish) but good quality also.

No. I do not buy instruments off the internet--ever. I do not use Craigslist--ever. Craigslist is dangerous, people.
