Roland FP-10
Bought for 5,735 SEK (€521) in August 2020. Weighted keys, Roland sound quality, no unnecessary features. Five years of family use and still the best-value entry into real piano playing.
Yamaha Pacifica 112VM
Bought for 3,390 SEK (€308) in January 2026. The Pacifica 112VM is the guitar that every research thread identifies as the benchmark for quality at this price — not just for beginners, but good enough to stay relevant well past the learning stage.
Yamaha THR10II
Bought for 3,590 SEK (€327) in January 2026. Works with guitar and bass, fits anywhere, sounds genuinely good at low volumes. The amp research kept coming back to this one for good reason.
