I don't play hard. I usually play jazz gigs. When I do rock gigs, I still don't pound the keys, but it is the Jerry Lee Lewis glissandos that I suspect are causing the damage because I'm told it puts pressure on one side of the key as you're going up or down. Because of the way the keys are designed, sideways "torque" can cause them to break.

I was just wondering if anyone has problems doing glisses on other brand 88 weighted action keys that are designed differently than Yammy's? I'm interested in the Roland RD 700sx or 300sx
