PIANO GEAR

SUGGESTIONS

Here is a list of keyboards and extra gear we recommend for piano lessons at Da Capo.

Yamaha P125

Yamaha P125 Digital Piano Deluxe Bundle with Furniture Stand and 3-Pedal Unit

This is a higher end keyboard with built in stand and pedals. The P125 model is fully weighted and 88 keys (full size) and will last many years in a piano player's journey!

Yamaha P45

Yamaha P45, 88-Key Weighted Action Digital Piano (P45B) & L85 Keyboard Stand

Yamaha's middle of the road keyboard. The P45 model is fully weighted and 88 keys (full size). The link above includes the built-in body, which we recommend for stability. You can also order it without the body and put it on a double X stand.

Williams Legato III

Williams Legato III 88-Key Digital Piano Black 88 Key

This is a good budget friendly option for an entry level keyboard.  The Williams Legato III model has semi-weighted keys but is full size (88 keys).  Great starter piano.

Roland RP-501R

Roland RP-501R 88-key Supernatural Digital Piano with Bluetooth

The excellent quality of a Roland console piano is designed for home use. Progressive Damper Action pedal offers continuous response for half-pedaling and other traditional acoustic piano techniques which you don't always find in electrics. The RP-501R model is fully weighted and 88 keys (full size). This is an excellent electric, but it does come with a hefty price tag. The good thing is the quality will last for ages! 

Sustain Petal

Sustain Pedal Universal with Polarity Switch by Wegrower for Keyboards, Digital Piano, MIDI and Synthesizer

Eventually you will need to learn how to use the pedal when playing piano. Here's a universal (it can be used for any brand keyboard) sustain pedal.  Sustain Pedal Universal with Polarity Switch by Wegrower for Keyboards, Digital Piano, MIDI and Synthesizer.

Yamaha keyboard stand

If you buy a keyboard without a built-in stand, you'll need to buy an external one. Please DO NOT buy a stand with a single X in it. They're cheap and there's a reason. They are so wobbly! You don't want a significant financial investment, like a keyboard, on a wobbly stand that falls over with the slightest bump. And if you have kids around you know that the bumps might not be so slight! The extra little grips on the outside will also keep it from sliding around too much.

WARNING!

Traditional Acoustic Pianos

Please don't buy or accept a traditional piano without having it checked out. They're very expensive to dispose of if you end up with one that can't be repaired. We do not sell real pianos but have contacts that can find you new or used pianos, depending on your preference. Reach out to us here if you're wanting to find a real piano for your home.
