Just as acoustic pianos utilise heavier bass hammers and lighter treble hammers, the RH Lite keyboard action also employs different hammer weights, appropriately graded for each playing range.
Such details provide greater stability during fortissimo passages, while preserving delicate pianissimo control, to satisfy the demands of even the most discerning pianist.

Hardware quality is good. Small but sounds OK with proper tuning and ring mutes. The cymbals could be better though but still decent. Staff was very helpful with frequent updates. My son enjoys it very much, not as much as the father!
Very nice staff in assisting us to try and check on the product. The product is good as expected..
GOOD SERVICE!!! ORDERED A FEW DAYS BACK THEY SAID IT WILL COME IN 5DAYS. 2DAYS ONLY I RECEIVED MY SNARE ALREADY. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ❤️
I had an urgent situation to replace my pickup and was provided fantastic service by zoso’s people. Tq Amin, will purchase more in the future🙏🏾
Probably the best price to performance headphone that you can get, the bass and the mids on this headphones is pretty impressive and you can balance out the slightly high treble with EQ like sonar.
CONS: flimsy build quality, parts on other headphone that you probably saw on others like aluminium are replaced with plastic on HD681. It could last long if you take good care of it. The earpads are big and it’s practically impossible to use it walking outdoors as it drastically limits your neck movement
Zoso is the only one that I’ve seen selling this headphones and Im mainly using this for desk headphones only and it did a pretty good job so far. I’ll look forward to the next purchase with them in the future.
Ps: Friendly customer service👍
Got this as my first bass after a long time searching, the staff were really friendly and informative with their stuff :)) def recommending this shop for its friendly staff and prices!
The design of this guitar is very stunning! love the colour since it was matte finish! The weight is very light that i can play for longer time without feeling tired! It is easy to play due to smaller fret width! Acoustically, it sounds almost like ukulele sound due to its size, but using amp, it sounds way better since it uses piezo pickups! Overall, it is very fun to play this guitar and i recommend this to players who wants to play classical guitar with smaller body! 9.5/10!
Glad that I found this FGDP50 at Zoso! Friendly and helpful team all the way from East Malaysia and their Kota Damansara Branch ! The sales rep is both knowledgable and also polite ! Good neighbourhood shop to cater for all your musical endeavors and needs ! Thanks for your prompt action in helping me to source this !
very patient, helpful and thoughtful. Very good shopping experience
Sangat2 recommend utk shopping
Servis sangat2 tersangat memuaskan
Layanan sangat baik .. sangat2 recommend utk beli barang di sni .. ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍
good quality , conditions and services. thankyou zoso
Fast response to inquiries, helpful and friendly staff and fast delivery too! Bought my drum and made payment online around evening time and they’re able to deliver on the next day morning already! Also thanks to the team for helping me to install the drum 👍🏼 I enjoyed my shopping experience at Zoso, recommended music store in Kuching!
Looking for this guitar everywhere and I couldn’t get the color I want. Mr Amin the Sales Rep managed to get me the guitar and it’s very fast. He is very professional and I felt like I know him for ages. Customer service 5.5/5 stars from me. The guitar build quality is awesome. The humbucker pickup is hot enough for me (I played mostly underground & experimental sound), clean stuff also good. For the price it’s a bargain. I played worst instrument at this price point. I wish only the factory assemble the pickup better (nothing your local luthier can’t fix in a day). From product quality to customer service I would give a 5 star. Thank you guys.
