Roland GO:PIANO 88-Key Full Size Beginner Digital Portable Piano Keyboard with Onboard Bluetooth Speakers and Sustain Pedal

After researching digital pianos my realization was that I should prioritize the release date of the product: these pianos are essentially computers, and the sound quality is determined by its polyphony - this model is relatively new and has 128 note polyphony, Many pf the popular Yamahas, which I’m sure are good, have been around for 5 or more years and support only 64 simultaneous notes. So processing power is important. Bluetooth is also important if you plan to use a learning software using your tablet or phone (as a side, I am an adult and teaching myself the piano, tried a few - and these software courses are not the way to go, imo). The other benefit of Bluetooth is that you can connect the piano to a wireless speaker for better quality and so, the built-in speakers are not that important. This model also has a built in metronome, which is also convenient because of course, ability to use a headset and practice in silence is a big reason why I wanted a digital piano to begin with. Of the 4 ‘voices’ this model comes with, I use the piano the most and it is very pleasant to ear - this was confirmed to me by family members who play an acoustic piano and can tell the difference. The use interface - several push buttons is very easy to use, and to me the simplicity isa big plus - it is great not to have visual disruption of LCD screens and digital interfaces. Finally, I find the keys pleasant to touch, the build quality is solid, and for this price point, I think it is great. It takes many years to learn piano, especially if you want to read sheet music, so, no need to be too stressed about this device being just like a piano. To learn to play, it is perfect, and I enjoy this device every day.

Smooth and good for practice or to travel light weight

I really liked the keyboard. Great sounds and the ability to adjust the key pressure is awesome. If you are buying this for use at home or use without a PA system, then I would not have any problem buying another one of these. The problem with it is the output connection for PA use. It's 2 mini headphone jack and not the standard 1/4 plug. This means you will have to use an adaptor. I don't think the connection was built for anything other than headphones. So, if you are not using it for a P.A. system, this is a great keyboard to purchase.

Great sounding keyboard that took my kids into the world of music. It can be placed virtually anywhere but we have a special stand and chair. Easy to transport, eg, for a showcase performance in a local park, and it can run on batteries. PS Be prepared to listen to music in organ tone!

After my son learned piano on his new Roland piano for beginners, he still prefers it to my $900 Casio Privia. I gave him his choice of keeping either and he picked the entry-level Roland.

Excellent piano with amazing sound all in a full sized portable yet stationary if desired electronic Roland Piano. Ability to use clear multi speakers to play along to your music from your iPhone makes it even more enjoyable and exciting to play. This piano is priced PERFECTLY yet had the quality of Roland tuning and sound. I highly recommend. sdf

No sustain pedal was included. There is hiss in one of the function keys. Otherwise seems like it will serve its purpose.

My piano is broken in less than one year (power connection problem , the piano simply cannot be turned on!). I am not a frequent user of the piano, like once per two weeks maximum. Yet, the piano 's power connection is broken in less than one year. And the product maintenance process is extremely difficult. First, Roland does have a live customer service number to call. Everything needed to be done online. Although they reply in a time manner, but their replies often don't answer my questions. I really dislike the I cannot have a live conversation with customer support and it prevented me from fixing my piano. In order to have a check up on my piano, I need to uber one hour to the nearest service location. Guess what, the two-way uber cost already cost half of the piano's price! Now I am considering to just throw the piano out instead of waste the time and money to go to the service center. So, given this piano's bad quality, I would suggest you to think twice if you live really far away from a service center.

Este piano es el mejor dentro de su categoría, Roland ya es garantía de calidad, pero este piano supera por mucho a los pianos de su segmento. La relación precio calidad es inmejorable, sobretodo porque lo adquirí en los primedays. Tiene la tonalidad característica de Roland, no aguda, como otras marcas, aunque algunos podrían opinar que es ligeramente opaca, porque además, muchas personas prefieren el sonido de los pianos agudos. Ocupa un mínimo de espacio, es muy compacto para ser un piano. Para principiantes, incluso para intermedios con necesidades de movilidad o con problemas de espacio o por economía, es la mejor opción, porque los otros pianos de 88 teclas de este precio son de mala calidad y suenan como juguetes no como un instrumento, para más avanzados que necesitan movilidad con el instrumento, sería más conveniente comprar uno portátil de mayor calidad, ya que el sonido de este piano, a pesar de que es bueno, no es como los Roland de gama más alta y definitivamente no suena como en los videos de Youtube o de la marca, aun con audífonos, ya que en esos videos, al parecer lo tienen conectado a equipos de grabación con ecualización. Tiene buen diseño se aprecia moderno y elegante. Las teclas se sienten muy bien, de buena calidad, no son ruidosas (no chasquean) aun cuando no son contrapesadas. Y llegó en tiempo y forma. Ya llevo tres meses usándolo intensamente por aproximadamente tres horas diarias de lunes a viernes (algunos domingos también) y todo muy bien! ¡Ya un año y tres meses de uso arduo y continuo, y afortunadamente continúa muy bien, como el primer día!

The item was received but there’s lacking . There’s no power supply in the box??? The box is empty!

Very nice instrument if it had wieghted hammer action keys would be better but then it would be too heavy good sound and features one of the best keyboards for portability

Buena calidad

My piano missing the plug which the crucial part in order to play the chords . Please send me only the plug in order for me to play. Thank you.
