Yea, Tony, it's the Stage. And I understand what you meant when you played it recently and didn't want to give it up.
Now, there are lots of keys in the warehouse to use...a Clavinova, Casio 8000, SD-5, MS-60's, several synths, but nothing like the Rhodes. Believe it or not, the little NP-30 is the one I go to in my office if I just want to "noodle" around.
I understand about attachment to Rhodes pianos. Even though I'm glad one of mine went to Dave, I still remember a significant lump in my stomach as he and I were loading the one he got into his van, even though I had two at the time-one stayed here in the warehouse and one
stays at the club where it's used 4-5 nights a month.
The kids will learn on the Stage, but will probably want something else if they stick with it. And, you'll still have the one keyboard that everyone who ever played one would still like to have.
Be well,
Russ
