Hey Guys and Gals,
Before you jump ship, and spend a lot of money, you may want to spend some time with a tape measure and measure todays 76 key keyboards. Then measure a brand new grand piano, and measure your present keyboard. In most instances, the key size is identical--the only difference is the space between the keys or clearance, which is about 1/1000 of an inch greater in the grand piano than a 72 key Roland I measured last night with a micrometer. The keyboard keys were identical in size and height. I talked with a performer about this last night, a guy who has played with the Ink Spots, and lots of other well-known, big-band groups. His response was "I can't tell the difference. If there's a difference, I sure as hell don't know about it." This guy has been playing professionally for more than 50 years. If he can't feel the difference, I doubt seriously that anyone can!

Cheers,

Gary
