Are Yamaha YPT keyboards right for you? If you’re a beginner you should certainly check out these Yamaha keyboards. Yamaha YPT keyboards include the Yamaha YPT-220 (sells for about $159.95) , Yamaha YPT-320 (sells for about $179.95), Yamaha YPT-420 (sells for about $229.95). As a beginner you don’t need a high end Yamaha keyboard. You can buy one of these cheaper models and only after you’re more advanced get a more expensive model. It’s a great idea to buy such a keyboard for a child who’s just starting out since you’re not sure whether he or she will want to continue playing the instrument. It would be a waste to invest more money. These three keyboards are great for anyone who’s on a budget. Why pay more for features you don’t need?
