This Yamaha piano keyboard has 76 keys that are not weighted. The keys look like the keys on a real piano’s keyboard. The keys have a Graded Soft Touch, each with different levels of resistance. This allows for an easy switch to a digital piano or an acoustic piano. When you are playing on this keyboard, it will feel as though you are playing on a traditional one.
