Style of Music: Quality music.

Musical Experience: Composer of Nostolgic music + Keyboardist/Guitarist/Producer.

Feature:
Amazing for piano players, muscians, producers etc. Can be used as a midi controller, synthesizer, a realistic organ, or simply a 76-key piano. The mixer, effects, synths are all very useful for any producer.

Quality:
This keyboard isn't just a musical instument it actually is a charming piece of art that can be used for decoration. It's the prettiest keyboard I've ever seen. It's simply a pleasure for viewing! would never take it out of my room. never.

Value:
One word = AMAZING!

Desirability:
LOL. This keyboard is my "first wife" so if I ever marry, the girl is gonna be my second wife.

Sound:
Excellent quality sound that sometimes You can't tell the difference between the wk3700 or a Roland if heard without looking.

Ease of Use:
Easy for any musician with basic knowledge of playing the keyboards or the piano.

Support:
I haven't dealt with the company that made the product yet. But the product page on the company website is great and useful. You can go on there and download a bunch of wave files and other stuff to upload them to your keyboard. It's cool!

Overall:
I'm 100% statisfied with this product. Enough said.

Style of Music: Classical, jazz, ragtime.

Musical Experience: Ex. pro. pianist coming back into music.

Location: England

Feature:
Features? You don't have enough space here! The organ electronic tonewheel features will satisfy anyone who does not have access to (or the money to buy) a Hammond. It lacks Hammond's depth and ultimate tone, but it comes amazingly close. The Keyboard action lets the instrument down. It's noisy and does not have the precise feel of Yamahas even from the 1990s. But don't let this put you off. You get used to it.

Quality:
The quality is in keeping with the price. It is a very complex product and reliability issues have been a factor, hence the numbers of re-conditioned WK's around. If you are going to gig with it then you can't just throw it into the back of a van with amps., guitar cases and drumkits. It simply would not survive. Used with care it would be just fine for restaurant, wedding piano etc. use.

Value:
I appreciate I'm reviewing on a USA site here. The prices you can get these for are amazing. Even in 'rip-off' Britain they are a huge bang for your buck!

Desirability:
At this price it's simply a must for any keyboard player. You'll still love your Yamaha, Roland or whatever, but you'll have a respect for the Casio brand that you've not had for many years.

Sound:
The Casio WK Series boards are a giant leap forward in technology. The excellent inbuilt speaker system combined with Casio's ZPI sound source means that when you play Grand Piano on DSP setting you get quite an incredible sound and depth of tone over the 6 octaves.

Support:
Have had no reason to contact Casio UK.

Overall:
I will be shortly needing an 88 key weighted piano. This Casio has brought me back into piano playing though in splendid style.

Feature:
Just got the board, the adapter and case....all I needed.

Quality:
I don't know- I've had it a week.....

Value:
Unbelievable...

Desirability:
As long as it holds up-I'll probably buy another one. Where else can you find a 76 key controller with sounds at this price?

Sound:
For the money-this keyboard outstrips anything in it's class and clases above. I have tried the Rolands, the yamahas, and the sounds are great-I run it in tandem with my Korg N1R and the sounds are very similar.

Support:
The website is as much use as a broken clock-absolutely useless for me. The midi songs available are a joke. Direct support- great- immediate response....I'd say 8 1/2.

Overall:
I'll be looking in a year Love the sounds and value Hate the manual and website
