Today marks day one of Amazon's Big Deal Days sale, and while it's undoubtedly great for smart devices, kitchen appliances, and fitness tech, it's also pretty decent for musicians.

Now, before I worked at MusicRadar writing about music gear for a living, I sold pianos and keyboards in a busy music store. So when a new sale drops, I always head straight to the keyboard deals to see what's on offer.

I’ve used my background in music retail to pick the very best keyboard and piano deals from across this mammoth sale.

The Donner DDP-80 doesn't look like every other home digital piano on the market.

And rather than having a stand with end cheeks and a back panel, the DDP-80 simply has four flared-out slimline legs screwed to the bottom.
