| You could check out your local Music stores to see if they are selling
of Yamaha pf-10 or 15s of cheap. These have now been superseded
by the MIDI'd PF70 and 80.
Over here in the U.K. you can pick them up for about 350 pounds.
I think they have everything you want except the detune facility.
Having said all that I played a (PF70 800 pounds)the other day and
have already started saving the cash. You can't beat a good quality
set of keys!
PK.

| Where is AKOV68?
I've got both a CP30 and a Rhodes Stage 73 that I'd like to get
rid of.
CP30 is in very good condition; Rhodes has never been out of the house.
(BTW - CP30 has weighted keys, and very nice feel.)

| 271.3 | New digital pianos? | OZONE::DAVIS | | Thu Mar 13 1986 13:01 | 18 |

I'm not a keyboard player myself, but one of the guys I play with
is looking to replace his old ARP electronic piano with something
cleaner and more portable. He's been talking about several companies
(Ensoniq, Roland and I think Korg) that are all coming out with
new electric pianos using digital samples in ROM for the piano
sounds. The cheapest is the Ensoniq which would have several "piano
type" sounds, split MIDI keyboard, and wooden, weighted keys at about
$1000 (not sure of that price but that's what I remember). Prices
go up from there with the Roland being the most expensive. I'm not
sure if that fits in with your idea of "low-priced" but you might
want to at least check into these before buying.
BTW, my friend will be selling his ARP as soon as he gets the Ensoniq.
If your interested in the ARP and not in a hurry to get a piano
you could send me mail and I'll put you in touch him.

Anyone else know of pf15's selling around the Eastern Mass area?
RE .2
What are the differences between the CP30's and the CP35's?
Thanks for the help,

Who knows what 350 pounds is in dollars. It has always been a bone
of contention in the U.K. that although the rate may vary at any
one time from 1.05 to 1.45 as it is now. That anything that we import
or even build ourselves still seems to sell at the 1 to 1 pound
for dollar rate in the U.S. Still I suppose that's the penalty for
being an Island. I suggest that this means if you dig around that
you should get a pf10 for under $400.

| I have a CP25 for sale if you're still interested. It's in mint
condition - rarely played and never gigged. I can be reached at
223-9862.
