And it has blue lights!!!!

BTW, choose 720p if you want to hear the best audio in that YouTube video, the other choices offer lesser quality

I don't want my grandkids playing on my good keyboards (MediaStation,G70 and Prelude)..till they are serious about playing...so I was going to pick up a S910..but the 76 key WK7500 looks to be the better value..

Seriously the WK7500 could be worth checking out for a family instrument..76 keys are just right for kids learning keys..

Actually, it would be a pretty good instrument for beginners, although I believe piano teachers would want weighted keys.

It has on board Audio Recording...cool, much like the S910...I don't think the G-70 has this very handy feature.

Every year those old boards get more and more outclassed.

Even more seriously, I think the WK-7500 would be a great addition to a studio, for alternate sounds...I've always liked Casio, and now that the accompaniments reads On Bass chords, it would be fun to play, although the styles still only have two variations (the G-70 has four).

One thing that is seriously missing, is actual MIDI in/out ports (which I believe the G-70 has) which would increase it's usefulness even more.

I'll have to check to see if my local Casio dealer has got his in yet...should be fun, although I'd probably pick up the WK-6500.

61 keys is enough for me. I will go for the CTK 7000.

Ian , why the 6500 with only 48 polyphony..the 64 voice 7500 won't be that much more money wise..

BTW: how many musical instrument dealers are in your area? Don't you live in the wilderness?

I probably would get the CTK-7000...which is the 7500 with 61 keys.

Actually Fran, Cape Breton (and Nova Scotia) is one of the richest places in Canada percentage-wise, for musicians, and has a most colorful musical heritage.

We sell more instruments here (especially arrangers and pianos), than they do in much larger provinces.

Google Cape Breton Island....it is a paradise for sure...I wouldn't trade where I live, for anywhere.

I wouldn't trade where I live either..for different reasons....close to all major highways...no traffic jams and many short cuts to drive around..the biggy though....All my family live here...no one is more than ten minutes away..

No big city life style..25 miles from Phila..and 10 miles from Trenton , NJ...

Also an hour plus to the Ocean..and a hour plus to the mountains..Poconos..

Also an hour plus to Amish area ..Lancaster..


Maybe more than 50 MI stores within 25 miles...

Several great places to get waffles and ice cream....and the best Ice Cream stand in the country..Dairy Delite...


I have it all..

Levittown has always been a good place to live..PA..
