Casio CTK-2550 PPK 61-Key Premium Keyboard Pack: If you're a beginning pianist looking for a great keyboard, here is an option for you. I recently bought the Casio CTK-2550 PPK 61-Key Premium Keyboard Pack with Stand, Headphones & Power Supply and I am truly pleased. I use to take piano lessons as a kid until I was in the 5th grade when I quit, due to people making fun of me saying it wasn't cool. Looking back, I wish I would have never quit. This keyboard however has re-sparked my love for music and I have begun to play again. If you are looking for a keyboard to learn how to play, this is the one! When I first started looking for a keyboard I knew I needed something affordable and compact since I am currently a college student, but I also did not want to sacrifice quality due to price. After looking and talking with my past music teachers, I narrowed it down to this Casio product. Cost Effective: If you want to get the most bang for your buck, but also need something that would benefit you as a beginner level pianist. The Casio CTK-2550 keyboard package is definitely the right choice for you, only costing $125! It is great that it comes with a quality set of headphones because you can play late at night and not disturb others. It's very beneficial by allowing you to set a beat in the background like a metronome to practice along with your sheet music. After having it for a few months I have begun to realize how great of a purchase it was. It was very affordable and produces quality sound with so many different options while you play. For example, you can select over 400 built-in tones to play with, as well as 100 auto-accompanied rhythms. Beginner Goals: This is truly the ideal product for a beginner because it is the perfect size which makes it easy to take on the go and set up anywhere to practice. As a beginner, it is truly important to practice and practice a lot! Since it is such a compacted keyboard it is extremely easy to pack up and travel with. This has been huge for me since I travel a lot between college and home. Being able to pack it up and fit it in my trunk to take home and practice is great. The piano itself is also very durable and has a very beneficial screen in the middle for beginners. The screen itself shows you what note you are playing and in which key. This is a huge asset to a beginner pianist as you learn notes and how they correlate to sheet music. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and would gladly buy again.
