Best customer service Ive ever encountered. My guitar arrived ahead of the date it was supposed to, in flawless condition. Played well right out of the box. I will be buying all of my gear from you, from here on out. You made me feel like I was ordering a custom guitar, just for me. I was treated like a valuable customer.

piano-like keyboard

The weighted full length keys are very much like that of a piano. I played piano years ago, then stopped - playing only a semi-weighted keyboard for the last several years. So I will say that this key... read more [+]board took some getting used to - it can feel a bit stiff. But I do have access to a couple of pianos, and I think the weight and resistance of the keys is pretty much like the real thing., The action is somewhat slow - repeated notes are difficult (for me at least) to play in rhythm and with strong velocity. But I have the same difficulty with a piano - so I'm inclined to blame me more than the keyboard for that difficulty. For most things I play (pop/jazz/improv/vocal accompaniments) the action works well for me.

Regarding features, it does everything that is in the user guide. Programming it is very straightforward.

A few cautions:

1. It does not ship with a power supply, so if you plan to use it as part of standalone (computerless) setup, you'll need to purchase that separately
2. It has no midi in jack, so if you can only restore configurations via the usb port.
3. it does not transmit aftertouch. To me that's shouldn't be an issue, as it should be thought of as a piano/epioano keyboard, not a synth (the action doesn't lend itself to synth/organ playing IMO) close [-]
