Question: Can you still get piano lesson when you have a keyboard!?
It's just a keyboard, no pedal, and probably not enough keys!. But, I really want lessons! I've been teaching myself for a while but i don't want to do this forever!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Even if you've been teaching yourself i expect you'll be taught the basics in order to make sure you've got the right technique!. I started of with a keyboard but i did get taught on a piano!. Still, I don't think it would make a huge difference for who ever is gonna be teaching you!.!.!.Good luck and enjoy! Oh, and well done on teaching yourself- that kind of motivation is really admirable!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You probably can, since you can still practice songs on a keyboard!. Still, though, getting a piano might be a better idea because of the difference in sound quality (keyboards never do sound as good)!. You don't need a huge grand piano or anything, an upright piano (the smallest version and the one that I have :D) is good enough for practice!. also, the lack of a pedal might become a problem as you become more advanced, but since it seems like you're just starting off, it should be fine for now!. Hope you manage to find a good teacher!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yep!. However as you get better you will need to get either a proper piano, or a digital/personal/portable piano with 88 weighted keys!.

I would recommend the P85, P70 or even better the P140 from Yamaha!.

I have the P140 as well as loads of others!.

Have fun!Www@QuestionHome@Com

ya u dont use the pedal much and the lower and higher keys you dont use at all unless ur really good but they dont even use themWww@QuestionHome@Com
