The Yamaha P-45 is a compact 88-key digital piano built for players who want an acoustic-like feel without the size or upkeep of a real piano. Its graded hammer standard keyboard gets heavier in the bass and lighter in the treble, and the black keys have a matte finish. The AWM sound engine reproduces grand piano tones with natural reverberation, and the slim, light body is easy to move or store. It is a strong first piano or a simple practice instrument, though it lacks the extra voices, rhythms and connectivity of pricier models in Yamaha's line.

The Yamaha P-45 is a compact digital piano with a graded hammer standard (GHS) keyboard. The keyboard feels heavier in the bass register and lighter in the treble register, as on an acoustic piano. The black keys have a matte finish.
Its piano sounds use AWM synthesis, which is based on digital recordings of actual instruments. It reproduces the reverberation of a grand piano.
The body is slim, with a depth of less than 30 cm. It weighs 11.5 kg with its speaker attached, so it can be moved around the home or used for performances outside. Most settings are controlled with a single button. Hold the "GRAND PIANO/FUNCTION" button and press keys on the keyboard to change timbres, play demo sources, set the metronome and more.
