Buying advice

When choosing a clavinet, consider whether you want a vintage instrument with authentic mechanics or a modern emulation for portability and reliability. Vintage models like the Hohner D6 offer unmatched tone but require maintenance and are heavy. Digital simulators in stage pianos (Nord, Roland, Korg) provide convenience and versatility. Budget options include controllers with software or affordable clones like the Crumar Seven. Test key action and sound demos when possible, and factor in amplification needs as clavinet pickups vary.
