Subject:Re: Roland MKS-20 vs RD300s or NAMM '07?

Hi Ryan,

I still have a Roland HP-3500s -- RD-300 with a pretty cabinet and 2-12"+mids+highs sound system -- in my living room. It's a more than useful piano, and (warning: heresy coming!) I think I actually like the Roland "Rhodes" better than most real Rhodes pianos I've played. It's certainly more even, and easier on the hands.

Regards,

-BW
