Sorry if anyone said this already and I missed it, but it looks like the manual for the 3000 is up.

Awesome!  Very fun tune, and a great performance.

Very nice, both piano and voice!  Impressive memorization with no sheet music.   

Thank you!  Let me tell you, it took me the better part of four months to learn it, memorized.  It might sound like the piano is very repetitive, but there are tons of little variations, and it was really challenging to keep it all straight.

Just me, playin' on my Casio PX-160, recording with my crappy cellphone.

Sigh.  I love my PX-160 that I just bought just a few months ago, but now I want a PX-S1000 too ...

Can anybody compare the key lengths of the new PX keyboards with the Kawai ES110? 

This post does just that, FWIW:

Brand name snobbery, most likely ...

Hey, just curious what some of the tones are supposed to emulate.  Here are my guesses, let me know if I'm on the right track.

ELEC.PIANO 1 = Fender Rhodes Mk I

ELEC.PIANO 2 = Fender Rhodes Mk II

FM E.PIANO = generic early 80s FM synthesis piano tone, maybe like the Yamaha DX-7

60S E.PIANO = a Wurlitzer, maybe one of the 200 models

How did I do?  

Thanks for the info in this and related threads, all (esp. Jokeyman123).  I bought a PX-160 recently, and wasn't happy with how my Tascam headphones (which worked fine with my old PX-830) were sounding.  I bought a cheap headphone amp, and that helped a ton.  FYI, the one I bought was from these guys:

Very affordable, and also neat how they literally make them in mint / candy tins (I chose Altoids Wintergreen ).  Recommended!

Here's me, Christmas of 1984, with my first Casio.    It's been a long time, but it looks like the Casiotone MT-68:  http://www.synthmania.com/mt-68.htm

Anyone have one of these back in the day?
