    Damn, it seems this style usually comes out as limited editions.
    Both of those korgs look sick. Nice posts Zenar. I hope I can locate the sv-1 somehow.

    @not sure
    where are you from? Here in EU it's possible to get Korg SV-1 88 R-BK.. maybe not so easily, but still. I think it's a great Vintage stage piano emu, with great "grand" and upright sound too. IMO, not expensive for what it offers

    it's not where i'm from, it's where i'm at :P
    and i'm in the EU, so this is good news.
    however, i'm not smart on where to look. suggestions? ebay is too sketchy imo.

    I would first ask a local shop/reseller if they can order it for you.. then you can look in the nearby countries and order it form there
    like: http://www.melodyshop.sk/eshop/korg-sv-1-88-r-bk/p-2081678.xhtml
    you want something a bit exotic and you will have to do some exotic things... there are no shortcuts. But because of the cost (it's not 20orsomething €... and you will pay more than the normal price, I bet!) - I think the local provider will get it's hands dirty for you..
    Good luck! :wink:

    I'm still stuck on why B/C and E/F are not grey keys on the piano or keyboard. They should not be either white or black keys imo.

    ROLI SEABOARD RISE 49 is like $1,000 USD [that's the weirdly attached pic]

    If you guys ever play games like WoW or SWTOR this keypad and keyboard are great. Played for years at work with them though I can't find my exact keyboard anymore. Without illuminated keys, and razor naga mouse pulsing, it's just not fun :
