Does this seem like a good deal?
on: January 07, 2005, 04:42:13 AM
Here's the Roland MP300 digital piano for $500 (US):

I bought it new Dec. 2000
excellent weighted action keyboard
built-in speakers
expandable w/ MIDI jacks
or plug it into an amp
Voices : regular piano, electric piano, harpsichord, strings
Combine voices and/or add reverb.
3 pedals with stand


I am thinking I may get this, but I don't know much about it... it is from a friend of a friend type thing.

If anyone has thoughts it would be great if you feel like sharing those with me!

Thanks,

m1469

Sure, seems fine, if it isn't beat. Of course you ARE going to try it before you buy it... right?

It looks OK on paper and you probably wouldn't get much more for the money, if the condition is good and you like the piano sound.
