You'll find the layout and Premium Grand Piano Voice familiar and inviting, while its improved feature set is sure to wow and impress even the most discerning musicians.

Yamaha P-143 Grand Piano

Taste the Real Deal

If you're looking for a digital piano that packs all the beauty and nuance of a grand piano into a compact and portable package, look no further. With the addition of a new 88-key GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard featuring weighted keys that are heavier in the low end and lighter in the high end, you'll be amazed at how similar this instrument plays to a real acoustic piano. This, accompanied by the CFIIIS Premium Grand Piano Voice will bring a rich, bright sound to any performance. Plus, a damper resonance function further enhances the sound to be fuller and even more authentic.

    Perfect Keyboard for any musician

    We love that this keyboard has fully weighted keys. This allows for proper muscle memory to be formed so that we can easily go back and forth between the keyboard and a full size piano. It's almost like having a full size piano without having to worry about space and size, and it can be carried around relatively easy. Since it has a built in metronome, it also reduces the amount of peripheral equipment required. Would 100% recommend to anyone starting out or looking to get a new keyboard.

    Rebate Was A Lie

    Was told when I bought this at a local music store that there was a rebate promotion going for this exact one, they gave me the info and I applied. It met all the requirements, added my reciept and waited about 6 weeks for a response which was a decline. If I knew they were not going to hold to the rebate, I would have bought with a cheaper brand that was very very similar but the promo was inventive for this purchase.

      Going from intermediate guitar to starting piano, this is the best option for the price I could find. Love the simple options and weighted keys. 88 keys also gives range. Very good choice without too much limit and enough to use at my level. #SWEEPSTAKES

      I'm looking for a basic piano to use for an open mic that I will be hosting on a weekly basis. My needs are that it sounds and plays well for the musicians I like the weighted keys. I need it to be able be run directly through my mixing board to powered speakers. I will be transport to the venue for each session so transportability is a factor. I also don't want to give too many sound And set up options to minimize time gaps between performers due to players wanting custom sounds. This unit is in my budget as long as it fills my criteria. Please advise if this is my best option. 
Thank you

      I assume you use the headphone output to send to the PA if you're going to use this keyboard live. Does this shut off the internal speakers, and if so, is there a way to bypass this so you still hear the built-in speakers?
