Korg RK-100S2 37-key Keytar (Red) Reviews
First released in 1984, Korg's RK-100 set keyboardists free from their old-school static rigs. For the first time, keyboard players could roam the stage and play solos alongside guitarists and singers around the world. Now, the groundbreaking keytar is reborn as the RK-100S! This 37-key keytar is equipped with 37 velocity-sensitive keys, an 8-note polyphonic synthesizer with two oscillators, dual ribbon controllers, and 200 presets that fit any genre and playing style. Setup is easy, simply connect headphones or an instrument cable, and you're ready to rip solos like a guitarist. The RK-100S is USB and MIDI-enabled for use as a master synth in the studio. Combining good looks and ergonomic design with incredibly versatile tones, the RK-100S is a must-have for keyboardists of all kinds.

Really nice to look at, listen to, and take to the stage!
Worth the wait on this one. Korg got it right with the S2 version of the RK. Nothing on the market has this quality of build. The stained wood is sooooo nice. Love that it's a microKorg XL+ on the inside. Lots of cool control include two ribbons for neat note and filter tricks.
Looking for a standout keytar, look no further.
Oh, and the slim keys are not that big of a deal. I got comfy with them in about 20 minutes. Really cuts down on weight and size!
This thing is a lot of fun!
Synth sounds are ok, others not so much...BUT, this thing is so much fun. I have only used it at home and at a few rehearsals to amuse my band mates. They beg me to bring it to the shows because it's just a fun instrument. I use batteries and a wireless system to get mobile and it's a blast.
Glad KORG brought this one back
Missed the boat on the last one. Glad the RK 100s2 is back and better than ever. Had to get a replacement midi remote for my roland ax 1. The RK fits the bill ! ! !
Great synth and controller with style!
This instrument was worth the wait. I've played a lot of different keytars, and I really appreciate the Rk's features and feel.
The 37 slimmer keys were really easy to adapt to, and that cuts down on the size of the product which I like very much. It's a solid piece; I believe the only keytar on the market that has a wood body. the synth engine is the same as Korg's micro Korg Xl plus which is a great 8-voice engine. For me, playing solos and chords, it's more than plenty. Rich analog modeling. The scaling and arp features add a nice zing to performances as well!
