I have played the hammer-and-string type of piano since I was 6, and subsequently don't get along very well with electric models - no matter how good the sound quality is, I think the 'feel' is all wrong. If an electric piano is to be bought, then, I would think it more sensible to buy a full-scale keyboard with an accurate piano voice. They can be a lot cheaper than electric pianos, without much difference in anything really. Except that keyboards normally have more voices. I've had my Roland keyboard for just over a year now, and it's been great. It sounds exactly like a piano (for when I'm using it to accompany a song at the folk club), but also has a fantastic variety of other features, all of which have proved useful. I'll enthuse about it to anybody who'll listen.
Ruthie.
