I have been learning piano for 2 years now on a cheap digital and I am finally able to afford a real acoustic piano. However, the best I can afford is like a Kawai K-200, which is 6K here.
Will this be enough to impress a girl if one comes over to my place and I play her something? Or would I need to get an expensive one like a Schimmel or Bechstein?

It's not about the piano, it's about what you're playing
An electric piano is enough for that

>>76356802 (OP)
you actually think a girl will have knowledge above "oh cool its a piano"

>>76356824
I mean, I have tried a few expensive pianos in the shop and even as a beginner I can tell they have much better sound. However, they are also 20K+, which I cannot afford right now.
There is a chance with the cheap piano a girl will go "oh, why don't you have a Bechstein, it has a superior tone, I don't like your piano. BYE"

Nothing to do with /fit/.

Get a better digital. Acoustic pianos aren't worth the hassle unless you're a pretty accomplished pianist and are buying really good ones. Maintenance, immovability, the inability to turn it down or use headphones, there's nothing a mediocre upright offers that offsets these disadvantages. If you practice somewhat seriously, the moment you live with someone, they will hate you. No matter how good you are, the repetitive nature of practicing together with the loudness of an actual piano are insufferable to third parties, probably including neighbours unless you have exceptional sound insulation. A mid range digital Kawai will give you plenty satisfactory action and sound and won't get out of tune or suffer other inconsistencies. Also, how much you can impress someone playing the piano depends only on how you play. If you're the kind of douche that tries to impress people with material posessions, an entry level upright is the most retardedly inconvenient object imaginable. People hand those out to get rid of them ffs. Just buy a Rolex.

New Kawai uprights are shithouse, as far as I'm aware (older Kawai grands are nice). I would go Yamaha. Also, you can get second hand refurbished instruments which are much better than new in the same price range. These instruments can last 100 years. I have a second hand Steinway upright which cost the same as the equivalent new Yamaha.

>>76356864
The Yamaha silent pianos are sick though.

>>76356870
I found the Kawai pianos a lot better over the yamahas with the same price. I hated the yamaha sound.
My plan is more to buy a cheap one now until I graduate college and have a job and then ugrade to an expensive one once I am a better player and have more money.

If you like digital more than acoustic you have no soul.

Are you going to lift the piano in front of girls?
Yeah, that will work.

>>76356802 (OP)
>learning piano to impress the girls
So you're telling us that you needed 2 years to play River Flows in You and Amelie theme? Because that's all you need. Unless the girl majors in music she won't know the difference between keyboard and Steinway

>>76357144
I don't play pop music, I only play classical music. It took me 2 years of consistent practice and lessons to achieve Beehoven's Für Elise but on a performance level.

>>76357161
Sorry anon but you won't impress the average women unless she is into classical music or you play covers of something she knows. Model of piano has nothing to do with it.

Are we talking about benching the piano? This is a fitness board

>>76357285
Pianos come with a bench usually

>>76356802 (OP)
Bitches don't know anything about pianos. A cheap Kawai in gloss black will impress them, but more important is that you know how to play.

people who do not share your hobby don't even know these words, retard
>>76357161
learn to play something popular and interesting, nobody will listen to you playing beethoven unless you're really good (and unless the piano is good but thats not the case it seems)

>>76356802 (OP)
Get a cheap used piano. I payed 200 for mine

>>76356802 (OP)
just put a Gucci on it

>/fit/ - Pianos
If you're not going to OHP it then get the fuck out of my face.

>>76357161
lmao you're a fucking casual at women baiting. it doesn't matter if it's the hardest song ever, they won't care if it's not pop shit and will get a permadry pussy with you

>>76357423
getting laid is as /fit/ as it gets

>>76357430
It's not actually it's pretty shitty cardio all things considered, go for a swim.

I dont understand people who center every single aspect of their lives around women. You wont get laid like this, you give off strong wingman cuck incel energy

What guitar should i get to impress girls?

>>76356822
This. Classically trained pianist since a child. Its the only thing I do just for me. I have a Steinway upright that my father left me. Yeah its a pain in the ass to move, but I'm financially set and I have no need to move anymore. Getting it tuned once every 2 years or so for $150 is not a lot of maintenance to be honest.

The piano actually helps me filter bitches I bring home. If a girl walks up and starts smashing on the keys and say "Play Adele" or some shit, I just smile, nod and ghost her the next day after I hate fuck her all night.

The only woman I ever loved was one who came over, saw the piano, asked me really intelligent questions about it, and said she loved Chopin, and if I could play something for her. Chopin is my favorite. Fell in love with her hard over the next month. She was the best thing to ever happen to me and I fucked it all up because I am a selfish asshole.

I was playing 7 years as a hobby but i had a rental guitar from a friend that i had to give back and i didn't play for the last 5 years, just reccomend me something mid range money i only have 10k in the bank

it's all about who's playing
if you're jacked you can just mash the keys and girls will think you're a genius

>>76357467
What kinda music

>>76356889
I agree. I was piano shopping a couple years back and ended up getting one of the Kawaii digitals, but if I were doing it now, I would have gotten one of the Kawaii uprights. I think it was maybe the K-300 that I thought played pretty nicely.

Learning piano to get laid is one of the saddest things ive read on this board. You have no idea how much practice it takes to get good at piano, how many technique improvements, theory, and sheer grind it takes. You dont do it unless you absolutely love music and piano. Theres no way youre gonna make it unless you have true motivations. Not to mention how pathetic it is to buy and practice a piano just to impress a girl who has tik tok algorithm fed music taste and cant tell a guitar from a bass, not to mention discerning any kind of classical music except maybe 5th symphony by beethoven. She wont care bro, shes for the streets.
Obviously if the girl is decent and has decent music taste she might like it, but she will see through your bullshit of practicing for fake reasons

How many pianos do you bench /fit/?

>>76356802 (OP)
Get a behringer synthesizer and make fart sounds if you want to impress bitches

kill yourself

This anon plays piano. Piano is the zenith of musical instruments to master. Nothing comes close.

Fuck women. Like I posted here, I cringe when a woman sees the piano in my house. Most want you to play some shit pop music, that is ridiculously easy. I can usually play most by ear, and I suck compared to pro piano players.

My favorite piece of music that I mastered was 3rd movement of Beethoven's moonlight sonata.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zucBfXpCA6s.

Took months of hand strengthening, scale discpline, arpeggio's. And get what, as far as piano music goes, its not even in the top quntile of diffiiculty to play.

Don't play for bitches. Play for you anon. Mastering an instrument is peak life goal kino. If you can master piano, you can master anything.

>>76357323
get something like a hymnal, easy songs to learn singing + playing, that will impress the bitches

>>76356802 (OP)
bitches love pop classical music, just learn a few bars of the most well known tunes

>>76356802 (OP)
based schizo
may god bless your soul or something

if she doesnt want to listen to you play music on your 6 thousand dollar piano then you can at least fuck her vageena on it when she asks if you play the piano
