YAMAHA - P145BT - Digital Piano - 88 keys - Black

The entry-level model in the P series. Perfect for beginners who are serious about learning to play the piano!
Yamaha's P series digital pianos are loved by pianists around the world who want the comfort of an acoustic piano in an instrument that is more manageable in terms of size and weight. With its simple design and ease of use, the P-145BT offers an authentic and highly enjoyable playing experience.

Compared to previous models equipped with a GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) keyboard, the all-new P-145BT features a much shorter and slimmer design, with a simple yet more modern and compact style. Our new 88-key GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard has been designed to exacting standards and offers the same weighted feel as the GHS keys used in previous P-series models. Bluetooth® audio functionality has also been added, so you can listen to your favorite songs from your smartphone or tablet through the instrument's speakers.

We recommend this model for:
- Beginners who really want to start playing the piano but don't know which instrument to choose.

- Musicians looking for a weighted keyboard that feels like an acoustic piano.

- People who want a piano in their home but don't have much space for it.

The new GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard offers a realistic playing feel
One of the main concerns pianists have when buying a digital piano is how the keyboard feels when they play.
In particular, they wonder if they can feel the weight of the keys under their fingers as they would on a weighted acoustic piano keyboard, if the keyboard responds accurately when they play fast passages, if there are any inconsistencies between the force with which they press the keys and the sound produced, and if the keyboard offers a sufficient dynamic range, from soft to loud.

The GHS keyboards used in the P series to date have been highly appreciated by customers for their excellent balance and ease of play, as mentioned above.
The new, more compact GHC (Graded Hammer Compact) keyboard in the new P series reproduces the playing comfort of its predecessors in every detail.
In addition, the keyboard is more compact than that of models equipped with the GHS keyboard, while offering an exceptional playing feel.

Offering the sound of a full grand piano
This model reproduces the sound of a Yamaha concert grand piano, the CFIIIS: the ancestor of Yamaha's high-end concert grand pianos, the CFX.

The sound was sampled from a piano with a clear and transparent tone, spacious high notes, and a solid overall sound.

In addition, the P-145BT features a damper resonance function that reproduces the rich resonance heard when the damper pedal is pressed, for an even fuller sound.

We hope you enjoy the deep bass character of this instrument, so characteristic of a real grand piano. Needless to say, this instrument does not require tuning.

Place the instrument wherever you want, or even take it with you
One of the problems that plagues pianists is that the acoustic piano is not an instrument that can be taken everywhere.

Another problem is that traditional pianos are often too bulky to fit into a room.

The P-145BT provides a brilliant solution to these problems. With its elegant design, the most compact in the P series, this model fits perfectly into the decor of any room.

Thanks to its optional soft cover, you can take the P-145BT with you to the studio, a party, concerts, or on a trip, whenever you need it.

Access the instrument's features more easily from the app.
By connecting the P-145BT to Yamaha's dedicated digital piano app, Smart Pianist, you can intuitively perform all operations on the P-145BT from the screen of your smart device. No need to consult the manual to find out how it works.

*To connect a smart device to a musical instrument in order to use the app, you can use a cable or a wireless connection via the Yamaha UD-BT01 (sold separately; for iOS only).

A minimalist design with only carefully selected features
The P-145BT is a model that perfectly embodies the expression “less is more.” Most people who enjoy playing the piano don't want a lot of features they rarely use. The P-145BT offers a simple, modern design to meet the needs of these people.
