Buying Casio LK-220 Personal Lighted Keyboard, 61-Key, with MP3 Connection, USB Port, and 400 Tones


I absolutely love this keyboard. The built-in "song trainer" is quite helpful, teaching you the song one hand at a time and then both hands. While the built-in songs are your typical public-domain fare (e.g. Canon in D, Turkey in the Straw, Ode to Joy, etc.), they are still fun to learn and play. The USB port on the piano also lets me plug the keyboard into my MacBook with a USB cable (not included) and play/record music in GarageBand. Also, I've been shopping around and it's hard to find a beginner's keyboard with touch-sensitive keys at this price.

I take away one star due to the misleading picture. I want to note that while the Amazon image shows a keyboard stand, an AC adapter, and headphones with connector adapter, this model number of the LK220 does not include *any* of those items. Only the keyboard came in the package. Only packages with the model number LK220 PPK and LK220 AD include at least an AC adapter. This meant that I had to run on AA batteries until my AC adapter came in. But I got the keyboard at a great price, even without the AC adapter, so I'm still happy with this keyboard.Get more detail about Casio LK-220 Personal Lighted Keyboard, 61-Key, with MP3 Connection, USB Port, and 400 Tones.

Buying Casio CTK-4000 ersonal Keyboard, 61-Key, with MP3 Connection, 10 Second Sampling, and Digital Effects


I could not afford any of the Phantom keyboards for my 27 year old musician husband. He produces beats and I wanted to surprise him for Christmas since his previous keyboard broke plus I had a budget. I did not want some play school keyboard. So I did research and comparisons. And although it is not the heavy duty super star artist equipment, it gets the job done. And he was really happy on Christmas!Get more detail about Casio CTK-4000 ersonal Keyboard, 61-Key, with MP3 Connection, 10 Second Sampling, and Digital Effects.
