Is the Yamaha P-143 good for beginners?

Yes. It has a full 88-key touch-sensitive action and simple controls, so it covers first lessons and years of practice. Players who want more sounds or recording outputs will outgrow it sooner.

How does the P-143 compare with the P-145?

The P-143 is the simpler, lighter model. It keeps the 88-key touch-sensitive action and dual layering but offers fewer connections and sounds than the P-145, which adds more voices and outputs.

Can I use headphones with the P-143?

Yes. There is a single 1/8-inch headphone jack, so you can practice silently. You will need a 1/4-inch adapter for headphones with a larger plug.

Does the P-143 have line outputs for an amp or recording?

No. The only audio output is the headphone jack, so connecting to an amp, mixer or audio interface means using that jack or an adapter.

What is in the box with the P-143?

The piano itself is the main item; a sustain pedal and stand are typically sold separately or bundled by the seller. Check the listing for what is included before buying.
