Dear T,

In fact I was thinking of asking you about your Electro since I was gearing
up to buy one! What's given me second thoughts about the Electro is what I've
been hearing about the acoustic piano sound. At the moment, I'm doing okay
using an old Kurzweil keyboard for my piano sound and the V5 for the organ sound.
The setup is inconvenient, however.

The new Roland sounds attractive, and I'm sure the pianos will be great. As
for the Roland, I'm fearful of buying another high-end organ that my weird
ears will hear as thin. Then I'd be back to the Voce anyway.

All this would be easier to figure out if stores in my area had any of these
keyboards (which they don't). So I rely on memories of the VK7 and this list
to figure out what is what. Is the new Roland fundamentally fatter in tone
than the old VK7? Or is it old wine in new wineskins?
