the accustic sounds still better... but the roland for its half price sounds really good. I guess the situation is the choice maker: If you have the big room which is necessary for an acustic grand piano, and want to spend to tune it min once a year better twice for about $250.- every time and don't need any midi or such then take a acustic piano. But If you don't have a really good room, you play at night in a rented appartment with neibours, want to spend half of price, never need a tuning, wants to connect to midi and so.. take a electronic grand piano or even smaller... there is no right or false.. the situation makes your decision... At the moment I play on a BOSTON GP218 which sounds great but sometimes I loved to have a electronic piano as well...
Why not just buy the real one
The digital piano can be customized to sound however you would prefer, based on 20 parameter EQs. The recording options (1/4 Jack and usb outs) and Bluetooth midi control are also useful for recording sudden inspiration. It’s easy to imagine using computer software, like Ableton, with this digital piano for varied instrumental compositions. You can also use headphones to do all that without bothering others at all hours.
