Katlaughing: So my wife P-Vine and I went to the piano store and discovered that with what we had to spend, we could either purchase a "Piano Shaped Object", as in an old consule with problems or a digital. She played them both and fell in love with a Technics digital without too many bells or whistles. So she called her choir director who also teaches keyboard at Shenadoah University and he threw in his blessings for the digital so, we pick it up New Years Eve.

As for the bobert, I bought a cheapie J.B. Player acoustic bass over ebay. If anyone has any experiences with J.B. Player acoustics, I'm all ears...
