Korg B1-WH digital piano (white)

General

These days, many digital pianos offer a wide range of extra features, but all those bells and whistles usually don't come cheap. If you're used to playing an acoustic piano, you might be more interested in a basic digital instrument that sounds and feels great, without boasting any redundant extras. Korg understands that, so they came up with the B1-WH, a stylish white digital piano with an authentic piano sound and a full-size keyboard with an acoustic response. The lower keys even feel heavier than the higher ones. A built-in metronome, a practical partner mode and a headphone output make life a little easier for you.

B1-WH: natural piano sound

The B1 - which wasn't based on an existing model, but designed from scratch - is equipped with an internal speaker system that consists of two 9W speakers, supported by a passive radiator system that makes your bass tones sound extra tight. Meanwhile, a Motion Feedback system ensures that your output isn't unnecessarily coloured. Korg's B1-WH features a 120-voice polyphony, which means you won't drop any notes, even if you're making extensive use of the included sustain pedal.

Digital extras

Would you like to practise your playing quietly? You can if you plug a pair of headphones into the digital piano's stereo mini jack output. However, you can also use that same connector to jack in an external sound system and share your performance with your friends. Other practical features include pitch control and a partner mode that divides the keyboard into two sections with an identical key range, so you can practise alongside your piano teacher. Finally, this attractively priced Korg piano comes with a sheet music stand with handy page retention pockets that keep your sheet music securely in place.
