I bought one of the first VintageVibe 73 Pianos several years ago. It is a beautifully crafted instrument which has earned its place next to my moog and the grand. Reliability problems of the hammers were a big problem after the first two years of using the piano. The screws were tightened to heavily and the plastic mounts of the hammers broke just next to the holes for the screws. However, Vintage Vibe sent me a full set of 73 replacement hammers free of charge which I mounted myselfe. If you want a maintenance free piano get yourselfe a nord. But if you don’t worry spending some bucks on repairs every few years or if you like tinkering a bit on the machine yourselfe – Vintage Vibe is the way to go.
