Electric pianos are where people fall in love or walk away. It’s not just tone. It’s response, bark, and how it sits in a worship mix.

In this video I run a real Rhodes and Wurli shootout between Yamaha CP88 and Nord Piano 5. We test three real world presets:
Bark (soft to snarl), Dream (worship ballad clarity), and Grit (Wurli drive + trem).

This one is also a small tribute to Ron Kenoly. His music shaped a lot of the worship sound many of us grew up on, so I’m using short sections to honour that vibe while we test these instruments.
