.. I once heard someone say "A man dresses for himself, a woman dresses for other women" ... I might add "kb players buy kbs for other musicians..." let's face it ... besides buying what WE want to play and hear, to some extent we are looking to impress OTHER people, and the only ones who are going to be impressed are OTHER MUSICIANS .... I've seen audiences in a lounge having a great time and thoroughly enjoying a vocalist who was performing with a KARAOKE machine as back-up .... did they care what KIND of machine it was?!?!? ... I doubt it.... .... if you can get away with using a Casio, and you are pleasing the crowd, they won't know, or care, and more power to you.....
