I'm getting back into keys after a 10 year layoff and I want to add a second keyboard for gigging. I'm now using a Casio WK1630 (don't laugh, it emulates Ozzy keys to a T).

When I get some bucks coming in from gigging I'll probably add a Trinity or Triton, but for now, here are my options:

1- Get my broken Poly 800 fixed (probably will cost $150+ and take forever)
2- Buy a used DS-8 for around $200
3- Buy a used DW6000 for $150
4- Buy a used Poly 800II in mint cond. for $175.


What would you do?
Please e-mail yyzkid@aol.com with your response.

Thanks in advance,
Bill

Unless you want the very elementary sequencer on the Poly 800s, get the DW! It can get so fat in that mid80s way. And it's got portamento. Get the DW and shop for a lower priced poly.mn
