Yamaha P-145 B

I have always wanted a piano, and every time I want to buy one I get freaked out by the amount of buttons and formulas I find on pianos, which were not visually appealing to me. However, when I found out about Yamaha P-145, I got some goosebumps because it literally fits all I needed.

When I got the Yamaha P145 at first, my first impression was "this thing is well-built". And I could feel it. Like, sometimes, I just be appreciating the moment I got it because it's so heavenly made. It feels like wood but I am not sure what the actual material is. Also, the keys feel like acoustic pianos even though it's a digital piano, which takes me to the sound quality. It is so good that when I compared it to an acoustic piano, I noticed no difference. I also liked how there are few functions because even though there isn't like a gazillion function, they made these 10 as good as they could be, which fits a beginner like me. And I am really thankful for the fact that Thomann provided me with two free subscription platforms to learn playing.


I highly recommend this keyboard because it is, for real, made for beginners who don't like to be confused by the multitude of functions, who like a compact design, and also appreciate sound beauty.

After a 'break' of almost 50 years since my childhood piano-lessons, I'm taking lessons again, so I'm a beginner with some experience, and decades of a love for piano music. I chose Yamaha because of their reputation in pianos and audio, and the P-145 because it suits my needs both in terms of features as well as sound. I ordered it together with the L-100 stand (as a bundle) and the LP-5A pedal unit separately (I didn't go for the 'mega bundle' because I already have headphones, and I wanted a better quality bench). This was so completely the right decision, it is wonderful to play and it sounds really good (plus it looks great in the living room). Connecting to the Yamaha Smart Pianist app on my Pixel 7a phone via USB was easy (the app recognised the piano at connection), allowing for recording, plus a visual interface for the settings.
