Any major difference between Yamaha p45 and Yamaha p125? Which one would you recommend I buy? : r/piano
March 20, 2023 - I would get the p125 - the stock pedal on the p45 is garbage and it only has a sustain pedal.

r/piano on Reddit: Difference between yamaha p45 and p125 ?
February 18, 2019 -
Hello! please help me folks...I want to learn the piano and know just the basics about the keys weight and timbre. I did a brief research and Im assuming that the p47 and p125 are decent pianos for beginers. The p125 is more expensive but what makes it better than the p45? Is the p45 a good choice? What would I be missing by buying the p45? Thanks in advance!

The two have the same keyboard so will feel the same. The P125 has a better sound engine, so will sound better, particularly when played through good headphones. Also, the P125 has 192 note polyphony vs. 64 for the P45. With lower polyphony, the first notes you play in a sequence of chords held with the sustain pedal can be lost. I recommend getting a better sustain pedal. The one that comes with these pianos is not nice to use. You will outgrow them at the same time, as the limitations of the keyboard design become apparent (it will be a few years away). Going for the P45 will give you more to put towards its replacement. Going for the P125 will mean having a nicer sounding piano.

Yamaha P45 Vs P125 Is It Worth Upgrading Or Is The P45 Good Enough
November 13, 2025 - The Yamaha P45 delivers solid performance for entry-level players, but the P125 represents smarter long-term investment. That extra $250 buys not just better sound and features, but greater encouragement to keep playing.

Perhaps you are thinking ‘what does Tone Generation mean?’ Well, when I play a note on the P125, what we hear is a recorded sample from a real concert grand piano that Yamaha made (and Yamaha make some of the best concert grand pianos in the world). The technology used to transfer that into a digital piano is moving on very quickly. One of the main things you’ll notice throughout this P45 review is that the P45 is getting left behind a little bit with its technology now, and it uses what’s called an AWM (an advanced wave memory) technology.

Answer (1 of 4): I’d argue neither is the “best” keyboard for beginners, thought both are basically designed specifically as minimalist/entry level hammer action keyboards for beginners, and work fine for that. I think what you’re asking is which is BETTER for beginners P145 vs p45.

-
I want to know if I HAVE to buy paddles as well.
-
any other essentials for a beginner would be much appreciated.

Yes, you definitely need to buy a sustain pedal. The supplied pedals with the P45 or P125 are pretty unusable. The P45 is the best value, same action and same sound generator as P125. The P125 way better speakers a better interface and those smart functions that sound really cool.
If you have no decent headphones or you like to play with the speakers then the P125 is your option. If you have good headphones and you usually practice in silence then the P45 is your choice.
Decent headphones don't cost that much and you can ofc also go the route of piano VSTs but that opens up another chapter.
Hope that helped.

I recently started playing the piano (last December) and bought a P45 a few months ago. It is quite incredible in my opinion, with nice keys and amazing sound. This could be average compared to other digital piano's, but to me it is amazing. The only downside is the pedal, which squeaks and was difficult to press down, I'd definitely buy a better one.
Good luck in your piano journey!

Yamaha P45 vs P125 - Australian Piano Warehouse
January 19, 2020 - First of all, the P125 has an improved sound engine, featuring the Yamaha CFIIIS concert grand piano sampling. The P45 uses the Advanced Wave Memory sampling, which is perfectly adequate, but slightly less impressive.
