Casio WK-500


$350.00 Released February, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Comes with a large library of tones and rhythms. Keys - feels like a real piano. Great for beginners - includes several different song books.

The Cons:The snare/bass drums don't sound as good when compared to the rest of the instruments. Not compatible with third party pedals. Comes with a short power cord.

The Casio WK-500 is a piano keyboard workstation with a 76 key layout. This is a simplified version of the Casio WK-3800, and while it doesn't have a large internal memory or as large of a library of available tones, it still has enough high end features to be useful to experienced users as well as beginners.
