Unlike some other digital piano brands that have a control panel on the left side of the keyboard, Samick has installed their panel into the Ebony NEO in such a way that they were able to put a hinged lid cover over it so that all of the controls are completely hidden when you look at the piano and you see no buttons at all (the Kawai piano company also has this feature in their CS11 digital piano).

The control panel and buttons are nicely installed in the left side of the keyboard cheek block utilizing an easy to read LED display so the user knows what function they are using.

The Samick NEO is somewhat unique among other digital upright style pianos because it combines a beautiful authentic polished ebony acoustic piano cabinet (with a full size built-in passive soundboard) made by the Samick factory with a top-of-the-line "Fatar" Italian made quick response piano key action and digital electronics designed in Germany. The Ebony NEO is also known as the "NEO" so I will be referring to it that way. This model is not available for purchase on the internet in the US. This model is a combination of an upgraded Samick actual acoustic piano cabinet with full size ribbed acoustic type soundboard combined with quality digital piano electronics, and the retail price is $4395US in local piano stores that carry new Samick pianos.
