Musical instruments, the sound of which is produced, or must be amplified, electrically (for example, organs, guitars, accordions).

Synthesisers Synthesisers differ from the other musical instruments of subheading 9207 10 in that, in addition to providing pre-programmed sounds (or ‘pre-sets’), which may also be modulated, they allow the players to programme their own sounds. Synthesisers may also have other built-in electronic components, such as samplers, amplifiers, loudspeakers, sequencers, echo, flanging, distortion...

Digital pianos In contrast to synthesisers and keyboards, the range and key width of digital pianos correspond exactly to those of acoustic pianos (heading 9201 ). They use sound sampling to reproduce the sound of acoustic pianos as accurately as possible. The action, including that of the pedals, corresponds to that of acoustic pianos. As a rule, they have built-in amplifiers and loudspeakers.

Other This subheading includes keyboards which are instruments that allow the player to use pre-programmed sounds (or ‘pre-sets’) only. The player cannot generate and programme his own sounds. Keyboards may also have built-in amplifiers and loudspeakers.
