If you are a piano player that uses the real thing,
it will be very hard for you to find an electronic alternative.
However,
After many years of searching ,
I did find myself a good alternative.
It is also a Yamaha keyboard.
The Yamaha P-150.
It costs a bunch of $$ ( around $1300-1500 used )
They don't make this model anymore but IMHO 
it is the best sounding model Yamaha ever put out. 
It comes with 88 keys that feels just right.
A sampler is also an alternative but I prefer the P-150 anyday
over any sampling option.
that is if you like the sound of the big Yamaha concert grand Piano.
