Let's see ..I have a 11 year old D-70[real black].
A 6 year old G1000[real black].

And a 3 year old VA-7[real black]...presently..

In the past I have had hundreds of black keyboards and modules...none were ever affected by the absorbed heat..



I prefer black or dark also, but I did have a problem one time at an outdoor gig in full sunlight. I was playing a Korg T3 synth (black), and by the middle of the first set, some of the plastic panels on top were warping from the heat. The synth never quit, but at the break I jury rigged a tarp to provide some shade.

Rant on >>>>
Why would anyone hire a band to play at their house party on a summer day (90 degrees) and expect them to set up in direct sunlight, in the middle of the yard (no electric), and directly on the grass (no stage, no plywood)? These people spent way too much time makin jello shooters. <<<
