Waves Electric Grand 80 Piano

Description

The electric/acoustic sound that defined 80s production

The CP series of electro-acoustic pianos were integral to the sound of late 70s/early 80s pop giants, from Phil Collins and Elton John to ABBA, U2, Toto, Hall & Oates and Billy Joel. Occupying the space between acoustic and tine-based pianos, the CP series made touring with a piano possible—without needing to haul a grand.

With a more focused sound than acoustic pianos, and a more complex sound than tine-based electric pianos, Electric Grand 80’s reverberant chords and shiny, polished leads slide into mixes with ease.
