Default small or miniature vacuum cleaner?

Can anyone recommend one? I want one specifically to clean out the corners of an electric piano keyboard, but of course it would have guitar applications too.

Not one that attaches to a regular vac via an adapter though - would like to be able to move the entire machine around by hand. Batteries or power cord. Strong enough to do the job, not a toy vacuum cleaner that won't pick anything up.

Many thanks for any recommendations!

I have a Ryobi one-plus vacuum. I have most of their tools in this series and extra batteries and chargers. It's a good, powerful system. The vacuum works well and includes a small crevice tool.

If you go on Amazon you can find several like this that attach to your shop vac. I use mine to vac out the inside of my guitars.

Sorry. I would have had a suggestion but I've never used a vacuum for a guitar or keyboard so I don't know what would work. Probably the hose on your regular vacuum.
