The New Featherweight Champion of the World?
Hold the phone, cancel your weekend plans, and clear a space in your home – because the Roland GO:PIANO88 has just arrived at Musicmaker, and it’s a game-changer. This sleek, smart, and seriously addictive 88-key digital piano is not messing around. It’s here to prove that lightweight doesn't mean lightweight on features, and that fun and functionality can absolutely go hand-in-hand.
Let’s take a deep breath together and dive into the details – and trust us, there’s a lot to love.
88 Reasons to Smile (Okay, Just the Keys – But Still)
If you're after a proper piano feel without the back-breaking weight of an acoustic, the GO:PIANO88 hits the sweet spot. It boasts full-size keys with a satisfying touch and enough room for two-handed playing, expressive dynamics, and all the drama your Chopin or Coldplay demands.
No toy-like mini keys here – this is the real deal for players who want to build proper technique or just stretch out and play with zero compromise.
It Sounds Like a Dream (Because It Is)
Roland has loaded this bad boy with gorgeous, premium-quality piano sounds taken straight from their pro-level digital models. When you hit a key, it rings out with tone, character, and clarity that punches way above its weight class.
From velvety mellow tones to bright, bold concert hall vibes, you’ve got a whole palette at your fingertips. And it’s not just pianos – there’s a treasure trove of other classic sounds too: electric pianos, organs, strings, and more, all rendered with delicious detail.
Take It Anywhere, Play It Everywhere
Weighing in at just 7.5kg, this ultra-portable piano is your perfect partner for home, studio, school, the shed, or wherever inspiration strikes. Pop in some batteries and boom – you’ve got a fully mobile piano setup with no cords holding you back.
That’s the GO:PIANO88’s biggest flex – freedom. No more excuses. You can practice on the couch, compose in the kitchen, or jam in the garden. (And no, your neighbours won’t mind – it’s got a headphone jack.)
Plug, Play, Learn, and Love It
This isn’t just a piano – it’s a modern music-making hub. Built-in Bluetooth MIDI and audio means you can connect it to learning apps, play along with your favourite songs, or record your masterpieces straight into your DAW.
Learning to play? Fire up a lesson app and stream audio through the GO:PIANO88’s onboard speakers while you follow along. Already a seasoned pro? Use it as a slick MIDI controller and turn your laptop or iPad into a full-on studio.
It’s as intuitive as it is inspiring. There are no fiddly menus or clunky interfaces – just plug in, power up, and play.
A Home Run for Beginners, Travellers, and Creators
The GO:PIANO88 doesn’t care if you’re a first-time tinkler or a seasoned session hero. It just wants to make music easy, fun, and seriously satisfying. If you're short on space, big on ideas, or just tired of lugging heavy gear, this instrument is your new best mate.
Oh, and did we mention? It looks amazing. Clean, minimal, and cool without trying too hard. It’s the piano equivalent of a crisp white trainer: timeless, tasteful, and ready to go wherever you do.
