Casio make great keyboards for the price. They always have. The MZ-2000, WK series and some of the CTK series really offer impressive sounds and compete well with many Yamaha PSR models. I still have a CZ-101 and CZ-1000 and I played in a synth pop band in the 80s with a keyboard player that had a CasioTone mini keyboard taped to the top of his Fender Rhodes.
I have never worried about brand names on gear I use. It doesn't matter at all to me who makes it, just how it sounds. Surely people here are not so petty as to think brand names really matter ????? I don't suffer from those sort of feelings of personal inadequacy.
Casio rules !!!!! If other keyboard companies were as competitive we'd all be better off. Now Fender are selling guitars in Sam's Club so that is not a bad thing especially if the price is better than a dedicated music store.
