Yamaha 61-Key Portable Keyboard for Beginners with Learning Tools, Music Rest and Power Adapter PSRE283

In this sort of keyboard the Yamaha has it all. Real drum sounds and beats. Great piano, clavinette, and organs. Of course there's lots of fun sounds and string and horn sections. They all sound good.

I learned to play a "Chord Organ" many years ago, and later worked on learning a bit about reading music, but never really got to the point where I could easily read standard sheet music. I did learn to play most of the basic chords with my left hand on a standard piano/organ keyboard while playing the melody with one or two fingers of my right hand, but have not really had anything to work with or practice on since I sold a "Thomas" organ back in 1976 so had forgotten most of what I really knew. This Christmas, my wife, knowing that at 82, I really wanted to re-learn a bit of music, especially to be able to play Christmas music in our home this year so she bought me the Yamaha PSR-E283 keyboard as an early Christmas gift. Since receiving it, much of what I knew in the distant past has come back and I have been able to play many of the songs I learned on the old "chord organ". This keyboard has a lot of nice features but IS designed for beginners. It does, however have a super nice sound and enough features like different instruments, rhythms, etc., that it could easily serve as an inexpensive backup keyboard for many musicians as well. All in all, I really like it and for the money, it's hard to beat for someone wanting an inexpensive but yet nice sounding keyboard with full sized keys (61 of them) that plays well.

Santa gave this to my granddaughter and she loves it. She also received some music books and the stickers to put on the keys to identify the notes. She is up in her room nightly jamming away, self taught and playing some excellent tunes in a short few months.

Excellent my son loved it excellent sound

Early birthday gift but daughter loves it, uses it after homework, and just gave to her. Her adult brother had the same one and loved it 😊 Her bro gifted his long ago and it still works after 20+ years 😻 However, I knew she asked for "her own" for bday next month.

Sound is good. Wish it didn't have so many bells and whistles. Constructed well and looks nice.

Great keyboard - suitable for beginners. It has access to connect mic and speakers

I only use it as a “grand piano,” without the electronic enhancements, but works well for my use. I tried another, cheaper keyboard and found it would sound keys I wasn’t pressing (it was returned in favor of this one).
