"Great 1st Keyboard"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I’m an experienced player in a working band and my gig rig stays packed. I just needed a keyboard to doodle on in my family room. Boy was I surprised. This has many of the features my Yamaha MX61 (more than twice the price) has and sounds great!Nice bright piano, warm strings, punchy brass and a built in backing band to jam with. It’s fun to play. Does it sound like a $1000 keyboard? Well…… no, but if my higher end boards went on the blink I could gig with this one without disappointment. Excellent value for not much money and zZounds is great as usual.
