Definitely should have saved $70 and ordered just the piano somewhere else! Happy with my Roland Keys 3, but the accessories in the bundle don’t make sense. I also thought I was getting a music rest because it was shown in one of the pictures but that’s fine it wasn’t included. The sustain pedal cannot be plugged in because there is no 1/4 jack on this piano, and the piano does not fit properly on the x stand. I really don’t know why a music store would bundle these items together. But I like the piano and it’s too much work to return all of this so I’ll be keeping it. Just be warned you should probably look at the measurements and buy a different stand for it, and don’t plan to use the sustain pedal.

Where to begin? First, I am not a piano player (not once have I learned). I am however versed in about 12 others. Most of which were self taught, so that is where I begin my review. In picking this over other brands, I started by playing them each. Spent quite a bit of time (14 different visits over the course of about 3 months) at a national chain store that offers many different models. (I will explain why I bought on Amazon at the end of my review) Casio, Korg, and Yamaha all have similar priced and somewhat similar featured, but the GO:Keys was what I chose.Lets start with the basics, a 61 key keyboard with a massive amount of sounds. The Keys are not weighted, but do have a synthetic "weight" to them (some resistance and push back). The speakers are excellent for its size. The small screen does take some getting used to, but its well laid out. The soft touch buttons to change menu items are responsive and grouped to help you move around the menus well. At 10 pounds this thing can be moved around pretty easily and it does offer battery power so you don't need to keep it plugged in.Lets get technical shall we? Starting off this has 128 voice polyphony (note combinations and arrangements), these are brought to you by Roland enhanced Zen-core sound engine. This is the same that drives thier much higher priced offering. So the sound reproduction is incredible. As for individual sounds there is about 554 different tones that it come pre installed with. There is an auto-accompaniment system that gives you more backing tracks than I can count. It actually reproduces over 1000 different sounds from this single sound engine.It offers Bluetooth, but its only for linking your phone or tablet to stream it to, not for headphones (thats a minus for me, I don't use wired headphone that often). There is MIDI over USB that will allow you to connect to a PC/Mac for production use. There is a headphone jack to connect to headphones or external amplification. I would have liked to see a dedicated MIDI or 1/4" jack instead, but this was also $350 keyboard.Arrangement, or der-rangement? So this model offers the ability to record and arrange mulitple voices and sequences at the touch of a button. Want to record that, sure it can do that as well. The arrangement allows for chord progression even when not playing the chords themselves, and allows for you to sequence them on the fly while its playing back to you. While it has many pre-set chord patterns, you can select your own. You can make intro, ending, and loop chord sequences with just a couple of spins of the dial and a few button presses. BONUS, there is an undo feature as well.As per effects that can be added/subtracted to the mix, there is 93 total "effects". These are global changes that can be dialed in and turned on/off with apress of a button. Apeggios can also be created with just a press of a button and this can be individually adjusted as well.Recording can be done via a USB Flash Drive, this can be stored or played back from. Wi-Fi compatiability utilizes the Roland Wi-Fi adapter, I don't own that so I can not comment on how that feature works.*Note the package I purchased was bought via Amazon from a local Texas music shop Austin Bazaar. The reason I bought it from them was that if I'm buying this from a national chain, that doesn't help small business out. My local (small) music stores did not have this model in stock, and would not get it before February 2025. The folks at Austin Bazaar were great, I called them up to check on the shipping (as this was a Christmas present). They were very helpful and super nice over the phone. They included a thank you card in the box, that was a nice touch.

Theere is everything you need in this bundle. Sounds good out of the box, is very light weight and the keys are a good size.

I know this was just a group or kit of parts, the piano and pedal are fine, but the keyboard stand was missing parts and incomplete, I find this strange since it is clear this box had never been opened, so definitely an issue at the factory and not the seller here.No support needed, I used my tools and made it work, however not everyone is good with tools

My grandson enjoys music and he would love to take piano lessons. This keyboard is perfect for piano lessons but it also mimics many other musical instruments. It is sturdy, well constructed and it has a great sound.
