Casio WK500 New vs. Juno D used

Hi guys once again I'm looking for a keyboard in the $300/$350 range, due a financial situation I sold my PSRS700[Well I sold some of my music equipment too, to pay off my HOuse!!, so is not that bad My Old House its paid for] So know I'm looking mainly for some good pianos/electric pianos/arpeggiator etc. to play with a bass guitar and a guitar in a trio.

I have the chnce to buy the Juno D used, but I saw the Casio WK500 and I thought it maybe a good choice, so as I have done before, I'm asking the question again.

Thanks Guys.

Those are two boards on complete opposite sides of the fence. What do you want from it? Do you need a budget arranger or budget performance synth? The Juno-D's a great little synth.., but obviously not an arranger. The D has good patches (and you can tweek them of course.., but also take that into consideration if it's something you're wanting to do because the WK-500 will let you down in that area).

I'm not really going to even go deep into sound differences considering how subjective that area really is.

I would give build quality to the Juno-D as its panel is metal. Key action again would be very subjective.

This is a tricky one man..., like I said..., these boards are on opposite sides of the fence from the other.

I new IT!

Well I'm mainly looking for decent pianos/electric pianos/an apreggiator would be nice, having an arranger will be a plus but not critical, I want to record music with it and have a decent piano sound recordings.

Thanks for relying,

PS: I also found a Roland RS50 for $200, but I'm wating for an answer from the seller.

Casio WK500? tried it a GC, awful "plasticky" keys horrible pianos!!!IMO! Definitely NOT!!

But hey!! I was dreaming about spending $300 and getting a good sounding Keys

Vilo,
For a little over $400, I can sell a brand new EXR09W Roland. With this, you get an arranger keyboard with great grand pianos and electric pianos, speakers, a 16 track sequencer and great quality at a great price!
Let me know if you are interested.
