The CP33 is made for the serious musician on-the-go. Sit down with one, and the instrument becomes an extension of your hands and your musical imagination. The authentic piano voices and rich expressiveness come alive at your touch, and the sound is big enough to blast through a full band onstage - yet nuanced enough to work magic in an intimate club. Yamaha's extensive experience in crafting fine acoustic pianos helps us in creating the ultimate digital pianos. Our advanced Graded Hammer Effect (GHE) action gives all keys an authentic resistance that increases from the top register to the lower - just as on an actual acoustic piano. Which means that you can naturally pound out thunderous low notes with your left hand and let the fingers on your right dance and fly with the high notes. In crafting the authentic sound of the CP series, we used meticulously recorded stereo samples of top-quality instruments, taken at various playing strengths, and included subtle elements such as String Resonance, Stereo Sustain, and even Key-Off Samples that capture the felt dampers muting the piano strings - providing the most authentic sounding and finely nuanced acoustic piano voices possible. The CP stage pianos are also master keyboard controllers that give you full command of your gear. Play and control external tone generators. Assign different voices to different keyboard sections and create multi-textured layers of sound. Two instrument zones on the CP33 with panel sliders, let you easily tweak the level of each instrument as you play. You can also freely reassign the sliders and wheels to control other sonic characteristics of your gear, such as sound attack, decay, brightness and filter cutoff. At just under 40 lbs. the CP33 is a very compact and portable yet full size stage piano.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Good slab piano
Nice upgrade from my Yamaha P90.
I purchaed this piano for the piano sound and feel. Any additional instruments or features that come with it are a bonus. The acoustic bass, strings and jazz organ sounds are done very well also.
While nothing replaces the feel of a real piano, this keyboard comes very, very close and the lighter touch on the higher keys really takes you there.
I only wish that the power transformer was inside of the piano instead of requiring a wall wart (transformer).
If you want a great piano sound and feel get this keyboard. If you want speakers to go with it as well as some more sounds, look into the CP300, but then you will need to add $1000, 30 more pounds and a deeper frame.

Perfect for small spaces
I don't have a lot of room or money for a full-blown piano (saving for a Yamaha U3). I wanted something I could really play that wouldn't be a toy and that would serve for the occasional gig as well. I previously had a P-80, and really enjoyed that, so I figured this would do as the logical successor.
Well, the key action is excellent. I'm not a professional musician, but I've been playing the piano for 28 years. It feels like I'm playing a piano rather than a keyboard, and that was what mattered to me. If anything, the touch is a little "heavier" than a typical studio grand, but I really don't mind.
The sound is just fine; I've never run out of notes in any of the playing I've done, and the grand piano samples seem spot on. Again, I'm not a professional, but I am picky. It sounds great through an amp and it sounds great with headphones (and the headphone option means practice late at night without disturbing my family).
I highly recommend this...
great entry level stage piano/keyboard
it came with the FC-3 sustain pedal, power adapter, but no music stand.
It's heavy with complete metal enclosure. The weighted keys are just wonderful.
It play exactly like a grand piano with the sound samples exactly like a $25000 grand piano.
I'd like to have more sound samples on this one but frankly, what it comes with should suffice for 99.9% of playing occasions.
The output is nicely controlled by two different settings.
The transpose setting is also wonderful.
When I turn off my amp, (this one doesn't have built-in speakers), I use headphones to practice (the headset plug is 1/4" not the 3.5mm)
The strings sampling is a little bit awkward, I have to say, I was comparing this to a Roland RD700GX, and I think the Roland sounds are better.
But it's a different level stage piano anyway.
I bought a piano bag and a stand from Amazon too. See my other reviews.
A note on the FC-3 pedal--it came with something lose in the housing...
