Keyboard Cases, Gig Bags and Dust Covers for 88-Key Pianos

Match the case to the trip: a padded gig bag for lessons across town, a rolling case for regular moves, a hard flight case for air travel, and a dust cover for a keyboard that stays at home.

Read firstMy guide on this, written for adults learning alone.

A portable digital piano is only portable if you can carry it safely. A padded bag protects it on the way to a lesson, a hard case protects it in a car or a plane, and a cover keeps dust off the keys at home. I list each by what its listing states, and I ask you to check the inside size against your own keyboard before you order.

Why trust a concert pianist's picks?

I recommend this gear because it is what my adult students need to work through my free 41-lesson course and, later, to use with my upcoming method books. I am a concert pianist and a university piano professor, and these are the kinds of tools I look at first when a student asks what to buy.

What should I look for in a keyboard case?

  • The inside dimensions. Compare them with your keyboard, not just its key count.
  • Padding and straps for a bag you will carry on your back.
  • Wheels and latches for a case you will roll or ship.
  • A cutout for the music stand on a dust cover, if you leave the stand on.
  • Where it lives. A cover for the living room, a case for the car.

How does a good case help you practice?

How this helps you learn: a protected, ready instrument is easier to start every day, and a case makes lessons away from home possible.

What do owners ask about keyboard cases?

How do I know if a case fits my keyboard?

Measure your keyboard's length, width and height and compare them with the interior size on the listing. Key count alone is not enough, because cabinets differ.

Gig bag or hard case?

A gig bag is lighter and cheaper to carry to lessons. A hard case protects better for air travel and frequent moves.

Do I need a dust cover?

If your keyboard stays out in a room, yes. Dust works into keys over time, and a cover is the simplest protection.

Can I fly with a digital piano?

A hard flight case with foam and latches is built for transport, but check your airline's rules for size and weight before you book.

Shopping outside the US? Do these links work in the UK, Canada, Australia or Europe?

Yes. The links go to Amazon.com and open your local Amazon store when the model is sold there: the UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden and Singapore. Models, voltages and plugs differ by country, so on your local listing check for the 230-volt or UK-plug version of a digital piano or a suitable mains adapter, and check that the sustain pedal, bench (keyboard stool) or keyboard stand you want is sold in your country. If a model is not sold locally, the page will say so.
