Great keyboard. I am very pleased with this product, it is a great improvement over cheaper digital keyboards that don't have the velocity/touch responsive play back. This keyboard also has many tones and instruments built in for variety. It also has some built-in songs and shows the notes/keys to play on the LCD screen. An included song book has the sheet music for the built-in songs.

A perfect toss between professional and super cheap

I bought this for my church and it works perfectly for what we needed. We had a tiny budget but needed something that could be used without sounding or looking terrible. This was a perfect balance of price and performance. It's been nearly a year and it's still going strong with heavy weekly abuse.

awesome!

i bought this for my nephew for his birthday and he loved it. it was not exactly what i was hoping for - it didn't have light up keys like i was hoping for, but still great. he has already learned the majority of the programed songs.

For the money it is a five star product. 10 years ago (in my 20s) I earned money tuning pianos and also went around with some guys and played gigs at dirty little bars in Saint Paul/Minneapolis MN. I hadn't had a piano/keyboard for a few years when I purchased this. I have a couple small children now. This thing's got the Casio Tones! I ran it through a Sony 200watt stereo head out to a pair of cheap craigslist ($60) 15 inch KLH speakers. Rocks and pounds! Kids love it. They play it. They have a "dance party" when I'm playing. Very capable machine for this type of fun. You can split the keyboard anywhere you want to , the keys feel decent.

No Mac support but I still loving it.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: I haven't find a CASIO's software to connect my keyboard with my Mac and transfer music,files, midi,etc.. only with Windows OS, besides that love it!.... it has a really good size, some people complain it is heavy, but what do you expect with 76 keys. The only thing is you will need to read the manual multiple times and use google a lot because the keyboard has too many options but the Manual is not that good and the info online it is that helpful. So far I have been able to download any score, convert it into MIDI and upload to the keyboard, so I am able to save the song in the keyboard's memory and play it any time. The keyboard also include lessons and playback if you want to learn a specific part of a song. The speaker I think it is decent, the only thing that I would include to this Keyboard is bluetooth to connect to any device.

The working man's Steinway

I bought this for my husband's birthday recently and it does feel like a real piano and trust me I have played around on a Steinway in many places. Now it won't give you the Steinway sound but boy does it come close to a grand piano. Don't listen to the music snobs about this one. It's a good deal, get it.

I like it a lot

I bought my 1st Casio in the 80's. I had 2 Yamahas over the years, but only the Casio still works. I needed a new keyboard-figuring I was due, and bought this unit. The Piano sounds pretty much exactly like a Baby Grand. The keys have a piano like feel-kinda like weighted, and WAY beyond my expectations. There are a billion other features-most of which I will never use-but as I progress, may endeavor into them over time. It's rare that I would recommend anything this highly. The price was great, as well

Casio has upped their game as far as the instrument sounds

I really like this keyboard. I had one of Casio's early versions I bought about 8 years ago. I used it in my classroom (elementary music teacher) every day 6-7 hours until finally some of the touch sensitive mechanism began to go wonky and I'd have random loud notes. Replaced it with this one. Casio has upped their game as far as the instrument sounds, as well as the built in percussion tracks. I don't use the built-in speakers, but run it through a very good sound system, and I am amazed how lovely and realistic the various patches are. I hope I get as much life or more out of this one as I got out of its predecessor.

This keyboard is fantastic for its price

This keyboard is fantastic for its price! There are tons of functions and it sounds great! The keyboard comes with the wall adapter, music stand/holder, headphones, and the stand. It came in perfect condition and shipped fairly quickly with my Amazon Prime. I've had this for about 6 months now and the keyboard still looks brand new and works perfectly. The only downsides to this keyboard are the keys are a little clicky and there is no sustain option so you will need to buy a sustain pedal of some sort if you would like that option.

You will have to look a long time to find a better Keyboard for the Price.

I like this keyboard. I have played in bands and on my own for some time. I wanted to try this one, because I use MIDI a lot and wanted to try a keyboard that used a USB cable instead of a MIDI cable and adapters for my computer. The selection of voices and rhythms is quite nice, as well as the built in songs. It has an instructional program for students build in, which, while I won't use it, looks quite comprehensive and usable. The feel of the keyboard is very nice which touch response and a solid weighted keyboard feel, almost. The best feel of any keyboard I have used that is not a weighted keyboard. The headphones are ok, and would be great for someone who needs to keep the noise down, but I don't, so I will use the headphones elsewhere. I will say that the sound from the keyboard is better through the headphones then from the speakers. I have several Yamaha keyboards with onboard speakers that sound much better, especially in the bass range, than the speakers in this Casio, The sound is very good if you run it through an amp, so the sound is there, but the speakers are just a little under par. The average person would probably not notice any problem at all. I am just a little picky after all these years with the sound I get. The stand is pretty standard. I wish it could be adjusted a little lower. I have seen reviews that wish the keyboard attached to the stand somehow. This is just the way they are made now. If you need the keyboard attached, there are may ways to do it, including the band roady's favorite, duct tape. All and all, for the features, 76 keys, and ease of use, I would buy this keyboard again if something happens to this one.
