"A great keyboard with a lot of diverse features. Great for beginners!"

Sound: The sound coming through the speakers are great. There are many possiblities to tweak the sound and add effects (which sound great for this cheapr keyboard). The speakers that it comes with are plent for just practice play, but it's easy to connect to a amplifier for more volume. Feature: There is so much you can do with this keyboard! If you're a beginniner, it may be a little confusing at first, but as long as you're dedicated you can easily get this keyboard to make practically any sounds you want. There are many effects included and it is just a great piece of technology. Ease of Use: It's pretty easy to use. You can navigate through the instrument programs no problem. If you are looking to synthesize any sounds, you can do so digitally on this keyboard with ease. Quality: I've owned this keyboard for about 2 years now and so far no damage has been done to it. I have even gigged with it a few times and traveling with it is no problem. This keyboard is made of hard plastics, but it's durable enough where if it falls over it wont break easily. Value: For what this keyboard has to offer, this value is great! If you're a more serious player, I would stick with something better but for beginners/intermediates looking to play and have fun this is a great keyboard Overall: This keyboard is phenominal for beginners/intermediate players. You can learn so much using this keyboard, especially as to what to upgrade to if you get better due to the possibilities this keyboard has to offer to let you experience many different parts of digital keyboards/synthesizers. I am very happy with it.

Style of Music: Jam Band, Jazz, alt. Rock, Orchestral.
