Gifts for Beginner Keyboardists
For the beginner keyboardist who's just learning how to play, a portable keyboard is not only fun, it's also a great educational tool. Lighted keyboards like Yamaha's EZ-310 have contemporary built-in songs that let you follow the lights to play along, while built-in accompaniment moves at your pace -- super-encouraging for students more in tune with "Bad Romance" than "Mary Had a Little Lamb."

Looking for a full-size 88-key beginner digital piano? Korg and Kawai offer full-size digital pianos that offer MIDI connections to a world of online teaching applications. The Korg Liano features high-quality onboard Bluetooth speakers that hook up to your smartphone to create a simple and compact learning solution.

Every keyboardist needs a way to amp their sound! Most portable keyboards, digital pianos, and synthesizers have a headphone jack so you can plug in for practicing solo. We recommend the AKG K72 headphones, or get lost in music with a luxurious pair of Beyerdynamic DT 1770 PRO MKII Headphones for hours of pristine jamming.

When it's time to perform outside, your keyboard's built-in speakers can only do so much -- but a powered PA speaker like the Electro-Voice EVIVA 12P or Bose S1 Pro Plus all make fantastic keyboard amplifiers.

Gifts for the Keyboardist with Everything
Can you ever have too many musical instruments? From melodicas to mini synths, every keyboardist can use more gear to play with. The portable Teenage Engineering PO-28 Pocket Operator makes a fantastic gift for musicians of any experience level, and DIY eurorack synth projects like Cre8Audio's NiftyBundle make a welcome addition to any rig.

Guitarists are known for collecting effects pedals, but keyboardists tend rely on on-board effects for their tones. If your keyboard doesn't have much in the way of FX selection -- or your hands are too busy tweaking knobs -- a multi-effects pedal like a Zoom MS-70CDR+ MultiStomp or Line 6 HX Effects can be a great addition to your rig.

Shopping for a keyboardist who sings and plays at the same time? A vocal effects unit can add a whole lot more to their performance!

Creating whole songs and phrases out of looping audio or vocals opens up improvisational ways to expand your rig. Boss's RC-600 Loop Station pedal is more than just a 5-track looper -- this Loop Station has tons of effects with real-time modeling, rhythm patterns, USB MIDI and more.

Whether they're recording live performances or lessons, every musician can use a portable recorder like the TASCAM DR-07XP stereo or Zoom R12 multitrack recorder. Or they can turn their computer into a home recording studio with an audio interface with MIDI connections like a PreSonus Quantum ES 2.
