Roland GO Keyboards - They’re Seriously Inspirational.
Let's Go! Let's GO:KEYS!
Some instruments demand commitment before they give anything back. Manuals. Menus. Mild intimidation.
The Roland GO range does the opposite.
These keyboards are built around a simple idea: music should start the moment you touch a key. No barriers. No overthinking. Just sound, feel, and possibility. That’s why the GO series has become one of the most popular keyboard ranges in the world — and why we’re genuinely excited to have a fresh drop in-store at Musicmaker.
Whether you’re learning for the first time, writing songs at home, producing beats, or looking for a portable keyboard that still sounds unmistakably Roland, the GO range covers a huge amount of musical ground.
Roland GO:61P – A Proper Introduction to Piano Playing
The Roland GO:61P is often the keyboard that convinces people they actually can learn piano.
Its 61 touch-sensitive keys respond to how you play — soft notes come out gently, harder playing brings more volume and expression. That dynamic response is crucial for developing musicality early on, and it’s something Roland has always done exceptionally well.
The piano tones themselves are warm, clear and articulate, drawing directly from Roland’s long history of digital piano design. They’re not thin or toy-like — they’re musical, inviting, and forgiving, which is exactly what beginners need.
Built-in speakers mean you can practise anywhere without extra gear, while Bluetooth connectivity opens the door to learning apps, play-along tracks and backing music streamed directly from your phone or tablet. For parents, adult beginners, or anyone easing back into keys after years away, the GO:61P feels reassuringly simple yet deeply musical.
Affordable yet wildly effective, the Roland GO:61P.
Roland GO:KEYS 3 – A Gateway to Songwriting and Sound Design
Where the GO:61P leans towards piano learning, the Roland GO:KEYS 3 leans unapologetically towards creativity.
This keyboard is designed to make experimentation feel natural. It’s packed with a wide range of modern sounds — synths, pads, basses, leads — alongside rhythmic accompaniments that let you build ideas quickly. You don’t need theory. You don’t need experience. You just start layering sounds and seeing what happens.
The GO:KEYS 3 is especially appealing to:
- Young musicians
- Producers starting out
- Songwriters looking for inspiration
- Anyone who wants to create, not just practise
Bluetooth audio and MIDI allow you to integrate it seamlessly with phones, tablets and laptops, making it a brilliant bridge between traditional playing and modern music-making.

Roland GO:PIANO88 – The Full Piano Experience, Minus the Hassle
The Roland GO:PIANO88 is a revelation for players who want the feel of a real piano without the space, cost or complexity usually associated with 88-key instruments.
With a full-length keyboard, it allows proper two-handed piano technique, realistic note spacing, and access to the full range required for classical, pop and contemporary piano music. Yet it remains surprisingly lightweight and portable, making it ideal for homes where space matters.
The sound engine delivers rich, expressive piano tones that respond naturally to touch. Subtle playing comes through clearly, while stronger dynamics bloom without harshness. For learners taking lessons, or players who want to practise seriously at home, this makes a huge difference.
Add in Bluetooth, USB connectivity, and built-in speakers, and you’ve got a digital piano that feels modern, flexible and refreshingly uncomplicated.
Roland GO:KEYS 5 – The GO Range Comes of Age
The Roland GO:KEYS 5 is where the GO concept really stretches its legs. This keyboard is aimed at players who want portability and immediacy, but with deeper sonic potential and more expressive control.
The sound set is broader, richer and more detailed, covering everything from acoustic instruments to modern electronic textures. It’s equally at home being used as a songwriting tool, a performance keyboard, or the centrepiece of a small home studio.
GO:KEYS 5 shines for:
- Intermediate players
- Serious hobbyists
- Producers needing a flexible controller
- Musicians who want one keyboard that does a bit of everything
It’s still friendly and intuitive — no steep learning curve — but it rewards exploration in a way that keeps it exciting long after the first week.
Why the Roland GO Range Works So Well
Across all these models, Roland has struck a rare balance. These keyboards are:
- Easy to start with
- Deep enough to grow into
- Portable without feeling compromised
- Modern without being complicated
- They fit real lives. Busy schedules. Small rooms. Creative bursts at odd hours.
And they sound like instruments, not gadgets.
Which Roland GO Keyboard Is Right for You?
One of the biggest strengths of the Roland GO range is that each model is designed with a slightly different type of player in mind. Choosing the right one really comes down to how you want to make music.
If your goal is to learn piano or return to it after some time away, the Roland GO:61P is a brilliant starting point. Its 61 touch-sensitive keys, expressive piano sounds and simple layout make it ideal for beginners and casual home players who want a straightforward, musical experience without taking up too much space.
If you’re more interested in songwriting, beat-making or experimenting with sounds, the Roland GO:KEYS 3 is the most creative option in the range. Packed with modern tones and rhythmic accompaniments, it’s designed to spark ideas quickly — perfect for players who learn by exploring rather than reading sheet music.
For those who want a more traditional piano feel, the Roland GO:PIANO88 stands out. With a full set of 88 keys, it’s well suited to lessons, proper technique and two-handed playing, while still being far more portable and user-friendly than most full-size digital pianos.
And if you want one keyboard that can do a bit of everything, the Roland GO:KEYS 5 is the most versatile choice. It combines portability with a richer sound engine and broader creative potential, making it ideal for growing players, home producers and musicians who don’t want to feel boxed in as their skills develop.
Whichever direction you’re heading, the Roland GO range makes it easy to choose a keyboard that fits your space, your goals and your musical curiosity — and that’s exactly why it’s become so popular.
