New - Just bought a PX730, broken stand...

Hi

 

I have just bought a Casio Privia PX730 for my nearly 8 year old daughter, I have no clue about keyboards or pianos but she is crazy about them and has a lesson once a week and practices most evenings using youtube tutorials etc and although I am obviously extreme bias, she is very good. 

 

Anyway, we do not want to spend a fortune on a piano or keyboard until we know for sure it's something she wants to continue and not just a phase. She currently has an electric keyboard we were given, nothing special but ok for practice. 

 

We came across somebody selling a Privia PX730, the only problem was the pedals were not working since it was damaged during a house move, the beam the pedals are on has a break in it. I was wondering if it was possible to purchase a new stand/pedals or if it was even worth doing so at this early stage in her learning? We have paid £75 for it. 

 

Any advice would be massively appreciated. 

 

Many Thanks 

 

Joe

Hi Joe,

 

It's possible that the pedals are part of the SP32 (possibly the SP33 but I doubt it. Make sure you get the right one). These units are available at many retailers who carry Casio products including online. Make sure the retailer has a reasonable return policy in case that's not the problem. I think you should be able to find a model number on the pedal "beam."

 

I'm not sure about the 730, but you may be able to buy a stand-alone pedal as well that simply plugs into a jack on the back. It will only do sustain, but that's 95% of what most people do as far as piano pedaling.

Hello!

I have a similar problem and would like to know if you have managed to do something about the pedal board. I have Casio PX-730 and during transport from one town to other the transport company broke the pedal board. Could I buy a new one or I will have to find some way to repair it?

Pedal Board and Pedal Assembly are discontinued. However there is  Casio 91087980620 Pedal Unit which may work for you.

 

Piano is such thing everyone shall want to spend a fortune for ( If for any reason you still do not  have it)   :)
