a long time since a post, according to the dates on this page, BUT I just found this page! I googled my new keyboard, Casio XW-P1 GDK3 and found this. I just bought a GDK3 (XW-P1) Casio from Musicians Friend, slighty used, for $425. I was going to buy a new one at Guitar Center on Clay Blvd in Charlotte (off Harris), for $419, but the Casio discount ended. I refuse to pay $499 (general weird principle), and I was only going to pay tax IF I got it for $419, but this keyboard from MF, though was sold to me as slighty used, doesn't have a mark on it. It was shipped only in a battered and bruised original box, but I opened that to find a pristine keyboard! I don't think that the box was the one that came with this keyboard, as it doesn't even looked as if it's been touched. Being a buddhist must help me somewhat, 'cause I don't remember even panicking when I saw the box, though, thinking back, it would have been quite natural to "freak-out" at the sight of those beat-to-hell box! LOL I've turned it on and played a bit, but told myself that I was going to do something different, that I've never done, and read the manual (I'm a computer tech and RTFM is an acronym for "if all else fails, READ THE ******* MANUAL!" LOL) FIRST, so I'm doing that! I'm 63, and have learned that you are responsible for your own entertainment, so I look for different ways to entertain myself. Would like to hookup with other GDK3 owners (or any model of the XW-P1). Anyone know of such a connection? Can also contact me through my website. Thanks! Ed Ed Clark edclark.com
