Kingfrog...

Thanks for your input here. It's interesting how we all "hear" an instrument differently.

But your comments on the features came in handy. A "user's" description is always more valuable than a factory's polished synopsis. I want to know from another player what you're working with when you're down in the trenches (on a gig...once you've determined that the sound is right for you).

But...I'm starting to understand today's rules of the game:

Rule #1: you have to buy a keyboard sight unseen unless you live near AJ, George Kaye or Frankie (and a few others)...and "sound unheard" unless you're lucky enough to find a salesperson who is a top of the line player and just sells keyboards for altruistic reasons to help others (highly unlikely).

Rule #2: see Rule No. 1 above

Rule #3: see Rule No. 2 above

You wrote sometime last year:

"I live in one of the most busy entertainment areas of the US for OMB and duos."

May I ask where that is?

Lucky
