As I mentioned on another thread, acoustic instrument players tend to eventually settle on a single instrument that they develop a lifetime playing bond with. On the other hand, electronic arranger keyboards (as evidenced by members here) tend to be continously sold or traded in for 'next years' model. I suppose the big reason is that electronic technology is continously improving (by the week) whereas acoustic instrument physics remains constant.

Still, I thought it would be interesting to speculate, if for whatever reason keyboard manufacterers suddenly decided to no longer release NEW model arranger keyboards, do you think the 'arranger keyboard' make/model you currently own, would continue to provide you music making/playing satisfaction TEN years from now? - Scott
