I’ve never played music before. I’m teaching myself how to read music. This seems like what I need. Thanks Woody

Thank you very much! I think this is the only youtube channel that presented the list of go piano timbres-tones simultaneously with the musical performances. Congratulations!

A very thorough and honest review. It has helped considerably in making my purchase choice.

The best review of this piano I've seen so far!

great review, thank you ! you've covered all aspects I was looking for.

I wish every review video was like that! Veeeeery helpful, thanks!

Very helpful and well produced review, thanks a lot.

Excellent review, thinking of buying this to get back into playing again.

Thumbs up to Nate for making the call at that discord screenshot! Good advice as well from an enthusiast's perspective in the video.

Thanks for your video Woody. Inspiring to catch up piano playing ...

Excellent and thorough review. Well done sir.

What a great review. Thanks for recording it. Cheers from down under.

An excellent review. Thanks very much!

Excellent video. Don't play myself, but my twelve year old spends hours on a toystore keyboard. This Christmas, in isolation, an upgrade is in order. Wonderful input and recommendations.

Looks like a decent little keyboard. I’ve always been a fan of Roland products. And their digital pianos are amazing!

I loved your review! Thank you very much! I am getting this one just because I am a total beginner, and because I would like to carry it while traveling. Thank you very much!

Great review! I think I'm gonna buy it. Thanks a lot Woody :)

that was a super informative review, thanks a lot

Thank you for taking the time to make this review. I think this keyboard might be the right one for me!

What a great review. Belatedly found --> belated thanks!

Amazing video! Helped me a lot, thanks! :)

Thank you, very good and elaborated review to help me making my mind.

ty for this, really good review

Really very helpful thank you!

Great video and demo, covered everything. As someone getting back to the piano after many years I'm after a 61 key and deciding between Roland, Yamaha and the Casio. Wish all demo's were as good as this. Thanks. 👍

Thanks Woody, nice vid. Your usual good standard😊

This is by far THE best review I’ve found of this keyboard, and I’ve also very much enjoyed your unboxing video. The keyboard should arrive tomorrow and I’m super excited! Keep up the great work. 👍🏻

Very good!!!!!!! Perfect review!!!!

usually when i'm looking for a video review about something i want, i just skip skip and skipped to the part where i do need to know of but this video made me watch it entirely from the start to the end because his voice and the points (about the good and bad, should i buy it or not) were made so structured it doesn't get to the point of boring to me. from each second of this video review, everything is quite useful and clearly explain what i need to know. thank you

I think its very nice Roland Go for beginners , and for the money, thanks for the video!

Very good, thank you. There is also the 'octave shift' on it, up and down, Cheers....

The way you're holding that keyboard is urging me to buy one😍😍😍

I have it in use every day. I like it espcecially at distant locations.

Most certainly the best produced review ever on KZfaq

Great video 👍

Definitely best review on youtube.

The best review. I'll like it

Thanks for the video Woody! It would be great if you could do a 'beginners digital piano' shootout, with the Casio, Yamaha and Roland options you mentioned (so I guess latest models, up to 500). Or maybe demo some models that can be found second hand in that price-bracket as well.

This looks like a pretty good piece of kit for the money, seems like good value Cheers again from Australia

a very superb comprehensif review! thanks i want to buy this piano and then i found this video ini its really help a lot. thanks sir from Indonesia. i'm your new subscriber!

one thing I like it...its minimalist in design.perfect for beginners like me,not intimidate from lot of controls

best review i have ever seen

Woody, this is GREAT and you have definitely convinced me to get this piano as my first beginner option. This is a super review and I love all the details. I will be checking your channel and blog for more help. Thank you

great vid thanks

Hey Woody, long-time lurker and really enjoy your presentations! In the spirit of your Korg Triton videos, I would absolutely love to see what you make of the beast that is the OG Roland V-Piano. There's barely any demos of it online, and it was such a groundbreaking machine, it's a shame that it seems to be a Roland product that people love to hate - probably due to its outrageous price when it was new! I think seeing you get to grips with the powerful modelling engine would make a great video, especially with your Piano chops!

A very thorough review, thanks. In my case space is the main priority and the GO:PIANO would appear to tick most of the boxes.

very useful thanks

Just got one of these and I love it. I have a Yamaha P45 as well, but it's in the bedroom so practicing while my SO is in bed wouldn't be ideal. Even with headphones, having a light on wouldn't be good for her sleep. I can set this up in another room easily to practice on it in those circumstances, or I can easily bring it out on the balcony to practice on a nice day.

I was hoping against hope that this one would be a weighted key number... In my head at at the top of the video I had already sold my large Kurzweil 88key and was zipping around playing thither and yon in my house and all about the town with it. We continue to live in hope. Thank you for this video.

thanks Woody , I may get one , I'm looking for a backpack keyboard. & what wins me over on this is the electric piano & organ sounds , which aren't always so nice on other similar price/weight keyboards. Appreciate you running thru them at the end .

Thanks s lot for the explanation. Certainly a kind Of good Job in That vídeo. Muchas gracias por las explicaciones. Estan muy bien desarrolladas. Con mucho criterio para un usurario novel y ayudan a decidir cómo escoger un teclado en función de lo que necesitas y el precio que puedes llegar a pagar.

Woody, awesome review, soooo helpful and positive, WELL DONE LAD!!, Wonderful to hear all the SOUNDS...awesome detailed additions!! my only suggestion.....Would have loved to see if the midi worked w. Garage Band at all??

Good to see practical info about the intrusive lcd display, when will manufacturers address this ‘glaring’ problem ?

Great review that really encouraged me to go buy one of these. Having moved into my own (rather small) apartment, I was missing the family piano and needed something both affordable and compact. This is by far the best compact keyboard in this price range. The keys feel lovely and don't have that cheap/plastic feel that so many of the other keyboard brands have, and while the keys aren't weighted or hammer-actioned, they certainly feel "heavier" and more authentic than most keyboards. The only downside, and as expected with such a small instrument, the speaker quality isn't the best. However, through headphones the different voices (particularly the Concert Grand and European Pianoforte) sound wonderful.

Great review! I might have to get me one of these. You can't change the Tremolo or Phaser speed on the EP's can you?

Hmmm microusb! I'm with you there. MicroUSB is not very strong at all. I would like to see you compare this to the Casio CTX 700 if you have time and can get a model for comparison. The EPS sound nice on the Go don' they - especially that Wurli. Thanks

good objective review

Greetings from Melbourne.. nice demonstration I would really appreciate it if you could please do a review for Go Keys. thanks

the cat scratcher wall decor is a bold choice.

It’s expensive for that kind of keyboard. But it sounds much nicer than my $120 Casio.

Thank you

Excellent video. and.. WHERE DID YOU GET THAT TABLETOP STAND? (that U were using outside at 12:12..) (It looks perfect for a keyboard that size) I want one for my GoPiano!!!

I was thinking about the Privia when watching the video and then you mentioned it in the competitor roundup. It would be nice if you could get one for review to see what you make of it.

Brilliant Woody!!! Wonderful playing and demonstration on a compact instrument, that sounds fairly good under your magic fingertips, your demos are absolutely amazing. Elimaika, my beautiful japanese wife, loves the variety of styles and your stunning performance, Great Job!!.

I’m learning piano on the Yamaha P125. It’s a great piano for beginners. I want something to practice on when we go away in our camper and this seems perfect for that. Not sure whether to go for the Go keys or the Go piano. Or if there’s another that might be suitable. I like that this one can run on the battery and the keys are full size. Good video. Thank you 🙏

Thx! Really love the shorter body - no use for ultra high & low ranges, but prefer weighted keys. Hmm… so portable though!

you play beautifully sir.

Lost the sale because of the position and small size of the headphone jack. Thanks for a good review.

Love your presentation, Great! Gonna get one! What stand (that the keyboard is sitting on) are you using? I like it! Would you recommend that stand for that particular keyboard? Many thanks

Quite an entertaining review compared to many which are way too serious!

Pretty good for the price. Can you imagine having something like this available for relative peanuts during the 70's ?

I use it as a portable piano that I can take with me on vacation or to another room. It runs long on batteries and it is great to play to some KZfaq videos by connecting audio to piano speakers trough Bluetooth.

Great video Woody. Does this have rhythms built in, or just the drum sounds?

The Roland Go is still out there and it is a nice option. Much of the market information and the prices have been superseded. The Roland FP-10 has been replaced by the Roland FP-30X. These 61-key keyboards are called arranger keyboards and they are called that for a reason. They are very useful for someone who wants to a portable keyboard to use to arrange music on. I am not in any way advanced as an instrumentalist, or even able to play anything at a performance level, but I do know how to work out chord progressions and I am doing some songwriting. I got a Casio CT-200, which is a lower level of arranger keyboard, to take to group vocal class at the senior center. I can see the value of a small portable keyboard to someone who is doing songwriting or arranging. I would say, if possible, try to start a beginner on 88 keys. The 61-key (and 54-key) keyboards are strictly for playing and arranging pop music. Worse yet, there just isn't the quantity of training materials available for the smaller keyboards. I think what I am saying is that the smaller keyboard are really for someone who has at least some musical development already, be it voice or some other instrument.

Hi, I’ve just bought this as My first piano 👍🏻 please could you advise what power supply to get as their seems to be some confusion about what one I need. Thank you. Garry...

That review really helped me. I wonder if you'd mind telling me the name of the first piece you played?

This is a really good review. I’ve just ordered the Roland Go Piano and looking forward to learning to play. Been meaning to learn for years. Do you know if Bluetooth headphones can be connected via the Bluetooth? Thanks for the review 👍🏼

Roland and digital pianos are synonymous in my book. Many quality manufacturers out there, but Roland has always been in the game. For beginners, unless they have space restrictions that simply won't budge, I always start them on an 88 like the "real" thing. Yes, there are pieces that use those keys way up/down there. ;-) Excellent and comprehensive review. If I were a manufacturer, you would be getting every new keyboard I made to analyze. 2 quick notes: 1) There are non-adhesive cling type film products to dim any screen you don't want blinding you that would solve the menu screen problem and 2) even before you did the flash back, I thought to myself, "Wow! Woody really looks sharp today!" Kudos to your barber/hair stylist.

I remember my first keyboard done "Slow Strings" never seen it with most newer keyboards :(

great review! are you using the KS-12 stand? does it screw to the keyboard? thank you!!!

Thanks Woody for your review of the Go Piano. What was the brand and model of the stand you had the Go Piano sitting on?

Hi! has better sound quality than the yamaha np12? greetings and thanks for your videos.

Great review and playing! Love your channel Can you share some source for the blues you are playin at 5:20? Thks

great video. what is the Roland stand you are using if you don’t mind me asking?

I currently have a CASIO CDP-220R, which I also use as a MIDI controller. Has about 700 sounds, including all GM bank as well, you can sample with it, it has a 5 track recorder, you can split and layer sounds (at the same time as well too). One thing you should've checked is if you can play the GM2 bank by sending MIDI to the keyboard. Using your PC or similar. Many products that have MIDI but don't give you access to it have this "hidden feature", which is meant to be used by their song player, for example.

great vidio yet again woody, i have massive respect for you and your videos, keep up the great work and next time you visit home give me a heads up and il buy ya a pint :) ps when ya did captain pugwash for a second the wife asked what you ginning at (i was on the laptop with headphones on lol :) infact i smiled all the way thru you end demo, even thought of my smile at the camera richard claydemen on acoustic guitar voice (man he was cheesy) :) brilliant woody :)

5:19 Nice..!!!

I think you left out the GO:Keys to be honest, can I ask do you prefer the GO:Keys or GO:Piano or you haven't had a chance to play with the GO:Keys?

I understand that Digital piano.s run in a contact strip.After a few years the strip wears out and affects the playin usually making some notes louder than others.I changed mine twice after five years ,till they stopped supplying the strip.Of course it depends how much you play.I used mine every day.Portability is my main goal as I gig a lot.

It has some nice sounds on it, are some of them taken from the sound canvas? Interresting that it supports bluetooth midi. This feature is great for iOS users, as it works quite well with some Korg Products. I use the nanokey studio and nanokontrol studio frequently with gadget and the bluetooth LE is marvelous. Sadly, microsoft hasn’t really caught up with this development yet. Windows 10 has some support for this new standard but it a lot of software isn’t ready for it.

Does the sustain pedal come with instrument together?

The one I have is the Yamaha DGX 660 full size 88 key electronic piano, very affordable for a full size.

The used market varies. It's quite good in the UK, but in Spain people either give away used keyboards/pianos or expect stupid high prices for them.

If you have a Macintosh, you could get GarageBand and use an M-Audio keystation 61es or a 88es. That’s what I learned on. (GarageBand is free for those who didn’t know.)

Have you reviewed the Yamaha PSR-E373? Looking for a keyboard for my granddaughter. No space for 88 keys and she's 18 and in the next few years will be moving out on her own; so portability is important.

Thank you for this video. Which piano stand did you use here? Thanks.

Hey! This is probably a really dumb question, but can you pair a Bluetooth headset to it?

Hi friend! very good your video What about the weight of the keys? are heavier than those of yamaha NP12? and the texture of the keys? thank you!

Hi, nice demo! I'm thinking of buying this keyboard or the Roland GO:KEYS to use in my band, however I was wondering about the output and how it sounds connected to a PA/digital mixer? I noticed the ouput is a 1/8 rather than a 1/4 jack. Have you tried connecting the output to powered speakers and/or a digital mixer, and what was the sound quality like? Were there any audio artifacts? Also, can the speakers be switched off when it's connected to external speakers?

are you able to transpose notes?
