Korg sp200 v Yamaha p60

Post by tbip2001 »

Hey guys (an gals),

Ive whittled it down to either the P60, or the sp200.

My main priority is obviously a good piano sound, followed by a decent rhodes/wurly.

I only ever play, blues, boogie ect.. so what do you reckon?? anyone used both??

Thanks

Thanks mate,

yeah I tried both side by side through a trusted pair of headphones, and the p60 came out on top.

Both had good lower/mid registers, but the higher registers on the korg seemed rather harsh.

Neither had anything even close to a rhodes, which is a shame, but my nanosynth is half decent at that.

The sp200 is around 100 quid cheaper though, but when you take into account the harsh top end, and no speakers, then I think the Yammy wins out.

I did like the Korgs action though..

Hope this has help someone else as well.
Thanks
