I have been learning to play my PSR 1000 using a good old fashion teach yourself book - The Complete Keyboard Player series by Kenneth Baker. I have just finished book 1.

When I was first thinking of getting a keyboard last October, the DGX 300 was at the top of my list. With all its integrated teaching aids and songs to learn I definitely thought it was the model for me.

However when I was looking in my local music shop the general opinion was to go for a better sounding board which will last longer than one packed with learning tools which I will out grow.

I have to say now that I agree with them and I stretched my budget and got the PSR1000. Its a great keyboard.

At 36 I thought learning to play an instrument would be impossible, but it is not. It has been a real joy. As has reading the posts on this forum!
