The 100 sounds cover a range of different musical instrument families, including grand pianos, guitars, trumpets, saxophones and much more. Some sounds are split voices, meaning that the lower area of the keyboard has a different sound to the higher range.

Each of the 100 rhythms feature a backing track of bass, drums and other accompanying instruments that follow the notes you play in the chord area of the keyboard.

Avoid reviews!
Really pleased with my purchase, just what I wanted; lives up to all expectations. Nearly didn't purchase as a previous review said that it defaulted to switching off after 6 minutes to save energy. What the review didn't say was by pushing the tone button when switching on it does not switch off, this is actually explained in the manual. So beware reviews!

I can't stop playing it
This keyboard is the best one I've ever had. It is very light and easy to carry around, it has nice big full size keys and it has some wonderful sounds, especially the strings. I absolutely absolutely absolutely love it!

Returned
when I received the keyboard the box was damaged and the "quality assured" sticker had already been cut.set the keyboard up and tapped every key to check they are all working. A few of the keys didn't sound right, so I played a song with an app that I'm learning with. The app kept thinking I was playing a different note or not playing one at all. with my other keyboard I can play it perfectly. boxed the keyboard back up within an hour of getting it and requested a refund.

Excellent value for money for beginner.
My son loves this keyboard. Perfect for children learning about music. It serves the purpose of introducing a love of music to youngsters. As a musician myself, I find the intonation is not perfect and the individual key "feel" is not like a piano. The sound is (to state the obvious) electronic.

Casio CTK-240AD: Great beginners keyboard instrument
I bought this keyboard for my 12 year old grand-daughter for Christmas, as she has for some time mentioned wanting to learn keyboards. We have found the Casio CTK-240 AD to be an excellent choice both for the absolute beginner, as well as budding keyboard player. It is a well made fully contained instrument, and has a great sound. It is packed with all the features you need to make this both a serious instrument, as well as very entertaining to play. Its features include: full size keyed, fully polyphonic keyboard with split-keyboard facility; really good range of sounds including organ, piano, brass and string instruments: great range of preset rhythms, as well as a good library of popular tunes which you can play along to, or improvise. It also came with a free on-line tuition guide for the beginner. A great instrument for kids and adults alike!

Perfect for beginners/intermediate players/learners. .
As described, perfect for beginners or intermediate learners. Lots of functions and well made and good quality.Bought for 6yr old niece as total beginner to keyboard, but chose this model after hours of research because it has many of the functionality of a pro level keyboard.V happy. Oh, also when headphones plugged in the speakers are silent - that was a major requirement (most makes and models don't have this that are around this price), as would drive my sister crazy listening to my niece practicing for hours on end. Lol

Must have for a first, for the young budding musician
Bought for my friend's son's birthday, months on now and he still getting the best out of it. Great sound, great build and packed with great features for the young creatives to enthuse and develop their artistic musical interest. Well recommended.

Product= fine. delivery= awful.
I was not happy with the packaging when this was delivered. Bought as a gift and looks second hand because of the condition of the box, broken, rips, tape looked like it had been cut to look inside the box. Product is fine but very unhappy with the delivery.
