Casio CTK-1150 Keyboards
This is a review of Casio CTK-1150 bought from Argos last Xmas for my boy. We ordered Casio CTK1200 because that was the one that was advertised on their site that's on sale. Casio CTK 1150 is no longer available in the market. But anyhow, this one the one delivered despite the one we paid for was the CTK1200. Called them and asked but they said that it's the same. When we checked the manual that came with it, they were right. There's only one manual for 5 types or series of this keyboards. Having said that, let's move on and review what the keyboards got to give us.
Out of the box, you'll get like 4 sets of manual in different languages. One songbook, which are the songs listed in the songbank of the keyboards. Also, the songbook is useful if you have previous knowledge on how to read notes and good in learning stuff by yourself. Apart from that, I think the songbook is not meant for beginners or kids. Although, there are categories inside the songbook as A, B, C, D which means that A for beginners, then goes Intermediate, Advanced and Expert. Music stand and power supply are also included.
Now the keyboards' design is very good, lightweight, sound coming from the speaker is decent. Can use 6 AA battery on this one. 100 tones, 100 rhythms and 99 songbank. Learning option which turns on and off Right or Left hand. Also learning chords options. No sustain option or sustain pedal connection. Not touch response. No reverb or hall button/switch. But there's transpose/tune option.
By the way, we bought an X-frame keyboard stand separately and we're please with it.
