The world of keyboard instruments is incredibly versatile – arguably no other category offers such a broad range of musical expression. Even though many instruments look similar at first glance because they share a keyboard, the playing experience can be worlds apart. There’s a huge difference between playing an acoustic piano and performing on a keyboard. And it also depends on the musician: an organ can deliver refined accompaniment – or a screaming rock-organ solo.
Whether it’s a keyboard or a professional arranger workstation, an accordion or oriental keyboards, an acoustic piano, digital piano, stage piano or concert grand – our wide range of keyboard-instrument categories has everything musicians need. Our team in-store or on our hotline is happy to help you choose the right instrument for your requirements in terms of sound, features and budget. You’ll also find detailed information on the product pages in our online shop, including matching accessories.
Whichever route you choose, with our wide selection of
pianos,
digital pianos and
stage pianos
you’re sure to find the right instrument.
If you’re looking for the classic keyboard instrument, take a look at our acoustic pianos first.
If you’re new to piano, it’s well worth checking out our “used pianos” section – we regularly offer fully reconditioned pianos with excellent playability and tone at attractive prices. And even when the sound is generated electronically, the piano experience is hugely enjoyable: modern digital pianos deliver impressive piano sounds and high-quality keybeds even in the more affordable price brackets.
In short: Acoustic (real action) is the classic choice for authentic feel and response. Digital pianos are low-maintenance and flat-friendly (e.g. headphone practice). Stage pianos are built for portable setups and live use – with a focus on transport, ruggedness and quick access to essential sounds.

Many people choose to learn a keyboard instrument – especially the acoustic piano. It’s a classic first step, but there are many different keyboard-instrument categories that can open the door to making music. Home keyboards are particularly popular: for relatively little money they bring a lot of music into your home and make learning your first chords genuinely fun. For learning traditional piano technique, unweighted keyboard keys aren’t ideal – but for many beginners, the most important thing is simply to start. Later on, you can still decide whether to move to an acoustic piano or its electronic counterpart, the digital piano. Or perhaps an organ or a synthesizer is the perfect match for your style. In every category, the MUSIC STORE online shop offers suitable, great-value starter instruments. Modern digital technology also means impressive sound quality is available even in compact digital pianos and home keyboards. And of course we also stock sheet music, accessories and everything beginners might need.
At MUSIC STORE professional you’ll find a wide selection of respected manufacturers – from traditional piano makers and innovative digital-piano specialists to iconic synthesizer brands. Quality, reliability and musical ambition are always front and centre.
Among the most in-demand names in the keyboard world are Yamaha, Roland, Korg, Nord, Kawai, Casio, Hammond, Moog and many more. These brands stand for years of expertise, ongoing innovation and instruments that perform brilliantly in lessons, on stage and in the studio.
Thanks to the broad range in the MUSIC STORE online shop, you can compare different models, feature sets and price points at a glance – and find the right keyboard instrument for your musical goals.
For beginners, home keyboards, digital pianos or well-maintained used acoustic pianos are excellent choices. They’re easy to use, good value and help you make quick progress.
An acoustic piano offers unmatched feel and naturally resonant tone. Digital pianos score with smaller footprints, headphone practice and low maintenance – ideal for flats and regular practice.
Digital pianos are typically designed for a fixed location at home, while stage pianos are built for gigging and rehearsals. Stage pianos are more rugged, easier to transport and offer fast access to live sounds.
For beginners, 61 keys are often enough. If you want a piano-like range, choose 88 keys – ideally with a weighted hammer-action keybed.
No. Many modern synths are very beginner-friendly. Presets, straightforward controls and compact designs make it easy to get started with sound design and electronic music.
For children, home keyboards with learning features or compact digital pianos are ideal. Look for clear controls, comfortable key size and motivating sounds.
You can learn the basics, but for classical piano technique you’ll benefit from weighted keys. Many players start on a keyboard and later move to a digital piano or an acoustic piano.
Weighted actions emulate the feel of a piano and are ideal for piano playing. Unweighted keys are better suited to organ, synth and general keyboard styles.
Common accessories include keyboard stands, benches, pedals, headphones, music stands and gig bags. You’ll find suitable accessories in the MUSIC STORE online shop.
Entry-level keyboards are available at accessible prices. Good digital pianos typically start in the mid hundreds, with professional instruments priced accordingly higher.
