Questions people ask about this model

P-45 or P-145?

The P-145 replaced the P-45 in 2023 and sells for more. They look alike, so check the model name on the panel.

What should I check on a used Yamaha P-45?

Play every key for clicks, dead notes and uneven weight, try the sustain pedal, and use headphones to check both sides. Ask whether the power supply, pedal and music rest are included.

Is a P-45 a good flip?

It sells within days to parents and students. It is 88 keys and awkward to post, so expect collection-only sales and price for local buyers.

Selling one on

Yamaha P-45/P-125, Roland FP-10/30, Casio Privia sell within days - parents and students buy constantly. Console pianos with furniture stands are slow (nobody wants to move them).

Collection only; 88-key units are 12-20kg and awkward. Include stand and pedal if you can.

Where this price comes from

This is the range the flipper extension uses for a used Yamaha P-45 in working order in the UK. It is a starting point, not a quote: condition, extras, the original box and where you are all move the price, and faulty ones sell for much less.

The condition bands above are the same multipliers the extension applies to a listing. On a live Marketplace listing, flipper checks that range against real sold prices and live eBay listings for the exact model, works out your profit after fees and flags faults the seller mentions. It is free while in testing. Join the testers.
