I agree its a long one. They do have a 76 key arranger the WK-7500 which is light enough but the key feel is nowhere near the Privia. The only good part is the weight of two Privias will roughly be the weight of say a Roland G-70 smile

I agree, 61 just doesn't feel right and 88 is too much. I like 76. Still like the weight and at least I've gotten to play the Privia's. Nice boards.

Bill I doubt it, ....if you need a Piano with great arranger functions and styles take a look at the KORG 588

Don
If you looking for a home backup to your 500 in a 588 there's one on Ebay at a good price and its in woodbridge. Just an hour away from you. Bet the guy will deal for cash

KORG 588

Looked at the Casio site and the 150 doesn't have MIDI so that ones out. the 350 looks OK but I don't really want all the extras on it. What happened to the PX3 ?? Why didn't they put the new sound chip and keyboard in that ???
