Casio Privia PX-110 electronic piano with built-in beats

[@tiphaniebumper5980]

My first electric weighted key. Got a lot of enjoyable playing out of it. Still have it around years later... and sold again by Casio PX line.... 3000 is a lot of fun.

[@Alffovinni]

this was my first digital piano! sold it 7 years ago but I'll always remember this keyboard

[@mechaneil]

Got one a couple weeks ago from my local Goodwill. Missing the power adapter, right end piece, score stand and volume knob. For $23, it's working and sounds great.

[@gearfacts]

Woah $23? Yep I'd be happy to live with those small problems for that price!

[@mechaneil]

@@gearfacts Ended spending another $50 for the power adapter, sustain pedal and stand. Still my most recent best goodwill find!! 3Dprinted the volume knob, and 3d modelling the right end piece to get it complete again.

[@gearfacts]

@@mechaneil So did that all end up coming together?

Hi, my power in socket has a metal rod in the centre of it and any wires I’ve bought to power the keyboard have that same metal rod in the centre so it’s impossible to plug it in as the rods block eachother. Is there any way to help this or a wire that fits?

[@SpeedyPotato_]

Thanks for this, found one an hour away for 100 bucks. For a weighted piano, seems like a good deal.

[@gearfacts]

For $100, yes indeed

Nice review Mr G

The piano sounds the same as the CTK-900, CTK 5000, and the WK-500

Got one today for 40 bucks atva pawnshop here in Houston. I traded my M Audio for 30 so I actually paid 13 bucks for it!! I'm done buying instruments I have a full drum set, two basses, one acoustic, this Casio and three Hammond Organs (Hammond L111 for free, M3 for $60 and a bad ass M111 for $150) I loves myself some Hammond 😊 Oh a power mixer, 15inch fender bass amp, a guitar amp and a electric drums machine. Most of which I got off Facebook Market Place and OfferUp

[@gearfacts]

Yep, first of all make sure the power supply you’re trying to use has the right voltage (I think it’s 12 volts DC for this keyboard) then take a clear, close-up photo of the socket in the keyboard with a ruler showing its size. Then go to an electronics store with your power supply and ask for a suitable connector (show them the photo or take the whole piano with you if you have the strength!). Hopefully they can modify your power adapter in the store. If not, you can buy a whole new adapter from them which will be about $25. I’ve made a video about it, here’s the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWLddIFrpdpobM0

I bought this when it came out (2008?) I think i paid about US$400 including a Quik Lok keyboard stand. I bought it to have a keyboard in my living room so I could practice while watching TV (haha). Some friends of mine where preparing J.S Bach two keyboard concerto but they couldn't find a place with two pianos so they practiced in my house using my Korg N1 and this Casio Privia, they both liked the action on the Casio. Now it lives in a friends studio where he uses it as a master controller and it still feels great. BTW I always wondered who manufactured the keyboard action, is it Fatar or Casio built their own?

[@gearfacts]

I was under the impression that casio made their own keybed design.

[@miket8985]

Thank for your review!!! I am looking at a used one at this time. Not sure if it comes with the pedal the seller wants $200 which I feel is a bit too much. Any thoughts?

[@gearfacts]

If it's $AU200 I'd be thinking yeah it's a good price. If it's $US200 I'd be thinking yyyyyeah it's an okay price :) #gearfacts

[@andreahueck6207]

Hello! I have this piano but no pedal, and I would love to buy a pedal to plug into it. But I don't want to buy the wrong pedal that wont fit into the port/plug. Do you know which pedal works??

[@gearfacts]

Hi, you need one with a 6mm stereo pin, it's just a question of polarity. Having the wrong polarity makes is sustain when the pedal isn't pressed, and vice versa which is of course the opposite of what it's supposed to do... So I only buy ones that have a polarity switch, then it's guaranteed to work. Apart from that all you have to decide is the size/shape of the switch you like. I think it's well worth getting the larger ones that look like a real piano pedal, not the ones that look like a little black plastic box. Hope that helps :) Gearfacts

[@andreahueck6207]

@@gearfacts Do you think the casio SP3 pedal would work? I already ordered it lol.

[@andreahueck6207]

it has a 1/4" sustain pedal input.

[@pepek69andhalf]

Does this piano imitate acoustic piano hammer system keys or are the keys very light weight, just like in $150 e-piano?

[@gearfacts]

They imitate hammer action :) #gearfacts

[@pepek69andhalf]

@@gearfactsSorry if I annoy you with this one, but it's just to make myself sure:, by imitated hammer action you mean, the keys are heavy having hammer mechanics or are they light but they react on speed and pressure like in Yamaha PSR-640 for instance?

[@gearfacts]

@@pepek69andhalf That's ok - they are heavy, like an acoustic piano - not light and springy like a PSR. Really nice to play

[@sax0073]

Great review!!!, Do you think this Casio old model competes with other brands actual models from Years 2017 or 2018?? AND can I plug the piano px110 to a tablet?, Android or Windows??

[@gearfacts]

Hi, I'm really glad you liked the video (please mention Gearfacts to other ppl!) and the answer is yes to both your questions. I have heard criticism of the pino sound but personally I thought it was perfectly good ...Sometimes I think people who like Yamaha/Korg etc tend to see the Casio label and then "hear" a difference that isn't really significant. It has USB, so yes connecting to computers is no problem although you might need an adapter of some kind to connect to Android or iOS-devices. Thanks again for watching :) Glynn

[@sax0073]

@@gearfacts Glynn, thanks for answer, sorry but I do not see any USB conection, it has in/out MIDI but not USB, I was considering to buy a MIDI-USB converter and conect it to my Android cel, any app do you recomend to use for this?, I have Igrand Piano, regards.

[@sax0073]

@Gearfacts any coment on this?, How to conect the px110 to a tablet? Somebody?

[@travelturnedup22]

sa x007 I have this keyboard and it does not have a USB connector. So I don’t think you can connect it to a phone, tablet, or iPad. But check with your local music store.

[@silentgd]

I have a PX 110 I bought back in the mid 2000's..still sounding great but one of the lower C keys no longer produces a note..anyone know if there is a solution to this or is it too outdated to be repaired?

[@gearfacts]

The problem is probably a contact point under the key that needs to be cleaned. It's a bit of a pain taking these things apart, but it's not too complicated if you keep track of the parts as you go, and it's easy to clean the contact point once you find it.

[@silentgd]

@@gearfacts how do you replace the keys when done? (especially since you have to remove pretty well a whole octave to lift up the rubber part)..I wonder how much a job like this would cost if I found a professional to do it (I live in Toronto)

[@gearfacts]

@@silentgd Ah Toronto! I had a nice time there in '01. Was amazed by how relaxed and friendly everyone seems to be. Anyway, I think it'd cost something in the area of $150 here in Australia, so for the sake of all the time and stress, it might well be doing. Or you could sell it at a discounted price and use the funds to buy something new - that might end up costing you less in total.

[@silentgd]

@@gearfacts thanks..how do you end up removing the black keys? I dont really want to sell it as I find it sounds/plays great, much better than other models I've tried....I also dont want to screw it up with my ineptitude , so maybe I will look for a good repair person..what type of person should I be looking for should I be looking for (keyboard repair? electronics expert?)

[@silentgd]

@@gearfacts PS..my apologies, I was getting you mixed up with another person doing repairs (this guy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooOod5Wqpqmlb5I) which is why I asked about how to remove the white/black keys to be able to life the rubber pad underneath)..this other fellow started out cleaning the corrosion from the two dead pads, then ended up resoldering one connector, and the second needed a dab of conductive glue...beyond my limited abilities.

[@amimorris8678]

I was wondering, what is the name of the song that it automatically plays, I really want to learn it.

[@gearfacts]

Not sure, it'd probably be credited in the manual though (available online if you don't have it already)

[@Gemzy275]

If you are referring to the piece played around 4:15 it is Chopin. Nocturne in E-Flat major, Op.9 No.2
