It doesn't look like this thread gets much use, but I'll do the right thing and introduce my self.
I've already broken the ice in the most taboo of ways, asking which keyboard would suit me best. Let me offer a bit more background. I'm still on the uphill side of my 50's and I've played guitar for over 40 years. I've never risen to anything above what I would consider an intermediate player, but dammit I've stuck to it. I have played in church bands and in the 80s I played bass in a nostalgia band doing the bar scene in Missouri and Kansas.
I have often dabbled with keys. In the early 2000s I even produced a CD using a Roland XP80. It was horrendous. It was a CD to calm a colicky baby. It did work on my daughter... I have a few hundred copies left if you'r interested.
Most recently I took piano lessons for about a year. I went way overboard, as is my style, and bought a Steinway L. I sold it when we were planning a move and haven't played much since. I'm looking to right this wrong and once again learn to play piano properly. This time around I'll buy a digital keyboard. The wife may not have much of a sense of humor about me writing the check for another Steinway.
I make music at home. I don't intend to gig anytime soon. I'm just finishing a college degree and I'll need something to keep me busy. I figure that properly learning to play piano and doing some home recording will do just that.
This forum looks like it has a wealth of knowledge and experience on tap. Thank you for having me here.
