Hi all,

My almost seven year old son wants to take piano lessons. I don't own a piano so I was thinking of buying him a keyboard but I have no idea what would be the best type to get. I am willing to spend about $300 or so, depending on the quality - I think it is something he will stick with.

Can anyone give me some ideas or recommendations as to what to buy?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Carolyn

For a starter keyboard, I would go with a small one to learn, and as he get more experienced then go with a larger keyboard. I would not go for all the different modes as of yet until he has mastered the theory, or pedagogy, as the experts would call it.

I am not familiar with many keyboards that are in that price range. My husband plays keyboard but all the ones he has ever owned have been 1,000-3,000. I wish I could help
