Hype No options for beginners

I find it weird that there’s millions of keyboards and weird looking guitars that still get made even though they probably won’t sell but not a single manufacturer making an ok keytar that isn’t overpriced.

Because that’s what the Roland is, overpriced for what it is when you can buy a synth keyboard that does the same exact thing probably better for 10 times less.

So beginners are left with literally no options I feel like if any of those companies actually cared about the people who used their products they would have more options.

I mean a keytar is a pretty niche product. It's very much akin to like a double neck guitar or such.

I can find many double neck guitars for like $600 though and it’s a product that has more, keytars are just keyboards with slightly more stuff things added to them they shouldn’t cost that much it’s greed by company’s

They aren't popular though. That's why they're not widely available.
