keyboard recommendations? (88 keys)?
on: August 31, 2016, 01:13:13 PM
Do any of you recommend any good, weighted keyboards with 88 keys that one can get for a relatively cheap price (<= $350)?

In particular, does anyone have any experience with this keyboard:

very well cared for used/lightly played preowned will give you the best bang per buck. generally the  most inexpensive options in a category or lowest tier products from a company w a range of qualities are best avoided if possible.

i'd try to find a deal, timing and patience and flexibility will be key, by looking for a good used Kawai, the actions are on those are sweet.
