YAMAHA, 76-Key Touch-Sensitive Advanced Portable Keyboard with Power Adapter, (PSREW425)

This is my 5th portable keyboard and I am in love with it. The sound quality is amazing though the Grand Piano could be a little better. All other instruments are as close to the real things as possible and the number of features it offers at sub-$500 range is unbelievable. Great for any music enthusiast of ANY level. I know I am going to enjoy it for years to come.There are tons of videos on YouTube and you can learn about all of its features in less than 2 days.Sure there are room for improvements in the basic layout of the buttons but I am quite happy with it as it is. Your mileage may vary.

The Yamaha PSR-EW425 is the best $500 keyboard. It has everything you need to play music, including a microphone. Also, the 76 keys is a feature that other $500 keyboards do not have. The quality of the sounds is amazing. Nobody makes a better 76 key keyboard at this price and with these features. It does not have any faults. I like everything about this keyboard.

Sound is amazing.

I'm a guitar player who has been taking piano for about a year, but wanted to get a device that would allow me to play both classical piano pieces and synth based pieces from Van Halen (Jump, Dreams, etc) depending on the mood. Hopefully this would inspire me to continue on with my lessons and that goal has certainly been accomplished. I'm picking up and playing this thing every day. The speakers sound great and I've already done recording and jam sessions with it pushing it to an amp that sounded great....super loud just the way I like it. The drum tracks are also helpful when playing alone. Still lots more to learn, but so far, it's been fantastic.

I have been a Yamaha instrument consumer for 50 + years and have always gotten really great products. Even when buying beginner instruments for first time players the build quality has been great. However, it seems Yamaha dropped the ball this time. The psr ew 425 is an entry level arranger board with what seems to be toy keys. Less than 2 weeks of use one of the keys became loose to the point I believe it would have broken completely off. Unacceptable for a $500 purchase. Other than that, the board was great and what was expected. I returned this keyboard because of poor key construction.

As a non-musician adult trying to learn to play a keyboard I would say this is the best one to start on for the money. I love all the features of it right out of the box. Of course I had to buy a pedal, headphones, and microphone, but that was to be expected. Maybe experienced musicians would have a different opinion but I love it. I watched a lot of reviews on various keyboards before deciding on this one. I have no regrets or disappointments about it so far. Maybe as my skills improve I might moved up to a better model but for now it meets all of my expectations. Thanks Yamaha for this quality instrument!

The voices are pro-level I am just starting, but good price I had a great discount with the credit card and an easy payment plan. Delivery on time for the holidays. in perfect condition, Thank You

The keyboard sounds amazing and the 76 key size is perfect. I highly recommend this keyboard
