Sound – Piano is full of many shades of tone color and is expressive.
Touch is responsive, quick, balanced and can trill and repeat notes with ease.
Warranty – Financially strong companies can back their warranties. Best warranties are transferrable to all owners of the piano during the piano warranty period.
Investment – The finer the piano, the longer it will play as a musical instrument. One may spend twice as much but if the piano [...] Read more

As seasoned gigging musicians, we decided it was time we shared our thoughts on a couple of the new keyboards. Specifically, three relatively new keyboards that are designed primarily to cover the “bread and butter” keyboard sounds: Piano, Organ, Electric Piano and Clavinet. We have all three here on the floor at Cosmo, so a side-by-side comparison is pretty easy. Here are our thoughts on the new Korg SV-1, Nord Electro3, and the Roland VCombo VR-700:
Korg SV-1
Action: available in 73 or 88 note versions and has weighted action, great for acoustic piano, not ideal for organ
Sounds: out of [...] Read more

After a quarter century of design excellence, Music Man has done it again.
The 25th Anniversary guitar builds upon Ernie Ball's standard Axis shape, but is slightly larger with a chambered basswood body, an arm contour, updated electronics, adjustable pickups and chrome hardware. The guitar also incorporates a 5-way pickup selector and series/parallel toggle switch to allow for interesting combinations of the two Di Marzio humbuckers.
The 25th Anniversary bass boasts the same great feel and playability that has made these basses so iconic, but what sets this model apart is the elaborate switching system. The 4 push button controls allow you [...] Read more
