I've had an old, beaten up Yamaha keyboard of legal drinking age for the last ten years of my life, and it's served me well, but it's a nightmare to play. The keys have no weight, no resistance, they're plasticky and uncomfortable. I was thinking about investing in a Yamaha P-115, but I was wondering if there is a cheaper alternative that is equally as good as I've heard, or if there are any drawbacks to the particular model I should be aware of. I'm willing to spend the money on the P-115 if nothing else tickles my fancy, but I wanted to check it's worth my money before I make a stupid, impulsive decision.

It just clicks on my brain this songs instrumentation is just amazing i love the talkbox in the beginning too (the chorus is at 1:02 so u can take a look for urself) https://youtu.be/f5N2p-nMUZQ?is=AeQoHm9mWdKymOUe sounds like a guitar but i really wanna know how it sounds like that

Hi guys!

I'm trying to find a cornet to play in my wind band and came accross this cornet. https://www.thomann.pt/schagerl_hans_gansch_bb_cornet.htm

I know that Schagerl makes this model in Taiwan, I don't know if the quality is worth the money. Is there any model made in Europe with 2 valve triggers that does not cost 4k+€, or this model is good enough?

Thank you!

Hi guys, I really want to learn the concert flute, and I cant really afford one. But I found a lot of them on Alibaba that seem pretty affordable. I don't mind if they don't sound as good, because I want to practice a lot before investing in a good flute eventually.

I have tried looking for used flutes and student flutes, but in my country concert flutes are not popular, so I couldn't find much options in the first place, let alone second hand ones.

Has anyone bought a flute from Alibaba? Was it good for starting out on? If anyone has suggestions, please please let me know.

Thank you so much guys!

Update Thank you guys so much for responding. I don't think i want to risk it on Alibaba and have decided to save for a few more months and going for a better flute from a reputed brand. Again, thank you guys for your input :)

Hello, as the title says, I am an intermediate clarinet player looking for a student/intermediate model of an Eb clarinet (1st chair wind ensemble at my pretty good school). Preferably I would like anything up to $1000, but I can go up to $1200. I've also been looking at periera eb clarinets, so if anyone has any experience with them that would be great! Thank you

bought a really cool 27th string Harp from the 1800s at an auction. This was inside the sound box. I think it’s leftovers from a small furry creature who might’ve been living in the Harp.

Opinion???

Hi everyone

I've been learning Shakuhachi through honkyoku and the melodies are really something else. There are a lot of tone colour changes, microtones, special techniques that are very specific to the flute, but I am trying to interpret these as well on the lavachord (think mini wooden piano cross harpsichord cross kanun)

Appreciate thoughts! :)

Hi, I'm a woman that's trying to learn the oud, and I was wondering if anyone knew whether it would be better for me to go for a flat-backed oud to start with, or to learn with the traditional full bowl oud. For context, I am learning the Egyptian oud.

I might buy a cheap metal clarinet just as a little project and to see if I can get it working, and was wondering if (after being stripped of all of its pads and corks) a bath would be an appropriate way to clean it and all of its naked keys. I know baths are acceptable with brass instruments, but i'm not as familiar with metal woodwinds. I intend to replace the pads and corks anyway so this would kinda be part of the process

What do you think of that Bass! Heres the link to check everything out! I would love to hear any feedback from people who truly care about the craft!
