It's a Casio CTK-571 very cool for $65.


I'd just like to know, what the lowest note letter is on this 61 key keyboard?

He is suggesting that you get a real piano.

Oh, that would be impossible. My house is very small. A real one would be nice though.

are you a beginner, just wondering because you dont know the name of the note just by looking at it

The lowest note on this keyboard is a C.
Something good to practice on at the start but you might wanna move on to something more professinal such as a Synthesizer or a up market keyboard

yep, lowest is Note C,

2 Octaves down from Middle C (also known as C4),

Also, you have 3 Octaves above Middle C,

So, 2 + 3 = 5 Octaves available,

Plus Note C at the top,

So, 12 notes per Octave,

12 X 5 (octaves covered) = 60

Plus extra Note C at top , 60 + 1 = 61

61 keys in total, Q E D

I would stick to this keyboard for the time being. It is absolutely fine to learn on and play around with, sounds a bargain,
Have fun . . .

I am very much so a beginner at keyboard. I'm going to see if the band teacher at school will teach me some. I got this keyboard for new sounds to accompany my guitar and I have always wasnted to learn.
