If you wonder why I voted for 49 keys, my Russian friend... it was because you did not list 36 keys. I do not play well and only employ chords with my left hand... letting the arranger, multi-pads and Yamaha Styles do the "heavy lifting." I am only a song-writer and my needs are different from the many talented people who "inhabit" this wonderful web-site.

I don't have to "perform" as such... and a smaller keyboard (with the rest of the features of my current PSR-S970) would give me more room in my small recording studio I fondly call, "Jackass Flats" to add more gear to help me improve my recordings.

Thanks for asking... and for the "poll!"
