Beginner digital piano
Thinking about the Roland FP-10 but I've heard of some issues, like it not supporting 3 pedals or continuous pedalling. Also heard rolands eventually get bad clicking keys. I just want something to learn piano basics on and jam out. I guess I could connect it to some better piano VST too.

I personally tried the fp10, Yamaha P145 and FP-30x at a music store. The FP10 has shitty speakers, but I guess I'd mostly be playing with headphones anyway (though not always). The FP-30x has a noticeably nicer sound, and the extra pedal support seems good down the line maybe? I read that continuous pedalling becomes useful relatively early on. The problem is that the 30x, along with a stand, chair for playing, dp10 pedal, etc, would be over 350 bucks more than an FP10 with all of those, and idk if that's exactly worth it with my limited budget. Alternatively, I've been checking secondhand sites to see if anyone's selling a 30x, but to no avail. As for the Yamaha p145, there was nothing wrong with it, but I preferred the less plastic-y feel of Roland keys.

Any tips?

99% of the repertoire only uses one pedal and either pressed or not pressed.
