My first "keyboard" was a Yamaha forerunner of the PSR series. 1981 I paid $1,100 for it which was a LOT of money. In 20+ years it worked perfectly, never needed service. I gave it away and have lost track of it but it sure lasted through the years.

Prior to that I had pianos and organs.

Loved that little keyboard.

vox continental . the black keys were white and the white keys were black

must be early seventies when I bought it used.

Wish I still had it. Had a very unique sound.

Brand-new 1976 Rhodes Stage 88 piano (the leggy one). Lucky me, I mowed lawns for rich people in my teens. Everyone wanted me in their band except those who had actually been in a band with me and helped me lug the monster. I stubbornly kept it in perfect shape for 10 years of heavy gigging, then gratefully sold it for around $300 in 1986. I've never looked back.

Hi,
Do you still have the users guide for the KZ450? I am new to keyboards and have recently received a used working unit.
REgards,

Very first was a Hammond M. Just found another (1949) and have restored it...way too much inversted, but sure takes me back...


Good subject!

Talk about going full circle. This is one of the first threads I replied to when I joined this forum. Don't have the D50 anymore but still own a DX.

cheers,

It was a flimsy piece of plastic that sat on top of the qwerty keyboard of my Commodore 64.

I later purchased the music expansion system for the 64, a module that plugged into the back that gave a basic FM synthesizer, and a 5 octave keyboard.

First MIDI synth, Akai AX73, still have it, and still works fine.

Repeating myself.. thought this was a 'new' subject.

My first was a Bontempi toy keyboard, the second a JVC KB-500.
