I have been looking for a good, affordable keyboard, mostly on eBay (as I don't know where else you can find items at a better price online). Currently I've been looking at the Casio VL-1 VL-Tone and Casio PT-30 models, but they usually go for more than 200 NOK / 16 GBP / 29 USD, which is more or less my spending limit.
Living in Norway, I also need to keep my eye on the shipping costs. Shipping large keyboards from the US can be quite expensive - so I'm mainly looking at smaller keyboards which won't cost too much to ship (and on eBay, I mostly look at those from UK sellers, as that's closer to Norway and hence shipping is cheaper).
Does anyone here have any suggestion on a good, generally affordable keyboard model I should look for? I already have a Casio SA-35, but it's not too impressive; it has different tones (not all of which sound too good) and some basic pre-programmed drums and songs. Any suggestions where I can find affordable keyboards online would be appreciated as well.
I am mainly looking for something that'd be good for lo-fi home recording. I also think I should look for something with a sequencer, though I'm not entirely sure what it is; have I understood it correctly that it's something which allows you to record yourself playing on the keyboard, then you can loop it while you're playing something else (and thus making it easier to be a "one mand band" and make more complex pieces)? Considering the shipping, it should preferably be small in size and light in weight.
Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated! And if anyone have any they'd like to rid themselves of, feel free to let me know. =)
