You missed out the biggest bug bare of the VPC-1 Slip tape problems. This is the only downer. After continued use the slip tape moves exposing sticky felt that then causes sticking keys. The only remedy is to take it apart and replace the Teflon pads. Everything else is brilliant about the VPC-1 except this design flaw that plagues every owner.

Excellent and helpful review. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

I really enjoyed the feel of Yamaha's AvantGrand series. How does the action of the VPC1 compare?

[@sharwag2874]

Very enjoyable and informative.

[@waynesuewilson4421]

A lot of helpful info

[@ngharrison]

Been loving my VPC-1 for years! Got rid of many keyboards but that stood the test of time. The action, the classy looks and did I say... the action?!😉

Great video. I guess I’m curious why you need both a hybrid and vpc-1. Do they not serve the same purpose? Is it the portability of the vpc-1 that makes it a must buy in addition to a hybrid piano? In a hybrid you get the grand action and midi-out right? Seems to me like the hybrid is superior.

Quality control issues

[@SeaDrive300]

This guy has had his VPC1 for 10 years, and he uses it daily. I've had mine for 3 years, and I also use it daily. QC issues? Please elaborate, 'cause I haven't experienced any...

[@sallywebber6579]

@@SeaDrive300 may be batch related. Mine had velocity consistency problems. I'm not the only one though. Seems that quite a number of owners have experienced the same issues. There are videos on RUclips that bear this out.

Not my type of reviewer. I will avoid his videos.
