Rikki, Thanks, and you are correct...I have heard great players sound great on equipment I would never consider owning..

I use to own a Roland JX10, which I loved..a friend of mine[one of the best players I know] owned a JX10 too...He use to make it sound incredible...
Another friend [a great player , also] played the early Casio's in his act[Steinway was too heavy to haul], in a way that was unusual..He would play a verse[with a loop function[CT7000]..then he would play over top with a slide trombone...in real time...He could even play a decent piano part on this 8 voice instrument..
