I've long wanted to get a yamaha cp300. Of all those I've played it
feels really, really good to me and sounds great. But, it was more than
I wanted to spend so I settled for the casio px-310 (now replaced by
px-320). The casio feels pretty good for the price compared to other
stuff in that price range. The sound is also pretty good. But, having
played and heard something better (the cp300) I'm always a little
disappointed when I sit down in front of it.
