Hi, I'm in the market to buy a keyboard for the first time (I have always used a piano), and I believe that an arranger keyboard is best for what I want to do (write original songs).

I'm deciding between the Korg 50 or 60 and the Yamaha PSR 3000. I had the Yamaha 3000 explained well to me by the shop assistant but the other shop who sells the Korg had a salesman who really didn't seem to know what he was talking about and seeing as I'm a complete newbie I need more help.

Sooo......my question. If using a Style in the Korg, can I cut out any instruments I choose whenever I like? Does the korg have the same flexibility in arranging that the PSR 300 seems to have. Is it user friendly for a newbie like me?

Also, in your opinion which is the best keyboard to go for keeping in mind I will never use alot of styles. I only write contemporary ballads and some pop. I'm not into rock or jazz or big band or world etc.

Also, the keys are nicer to play on the korg and it's cheaper so i'm leaning toward that, but want to make an educated decision.

Thankyou for any help.
