Sound very good to me. Only keys seems not full size.
The BK-5 cost only 799 Euro.

Donny, on the foxtrot demo you posted I thought the muted trumpet sort of sounded like the Aflak duck. I thought it was horrible. Thanks for puting this stuff out there for us to hear. I hope everything is going well for you, eyes and all.

I agree with Tom, Donny. Just an awful sound. Guess I'll stick with my ancient PSR-3000.

I bought it online, and still waiting for it to come.
The same day, I tried it 5 minutes in a music store close to my work.
The keys seems very cheap and a little smaller and shorter than usual. I will compare with my other KB when I will get it.
The BK5 was close to the Roland Atelier Organ in the store and this Keybed was a LOT better.
It is my first Roland KB. So I will see smile
I bought it as a Roland reference KB to help my users when they will ask questions about Roland styles on vArranger

I will let you know !
