Pretty neat and well preserved. For $70.

Looks really beautiful! What section of the full keyboard is implemented? How does it work? Release date?

LOL! In noticing a key count disparity by rough approximation, the sum total of my musical keyboard knowledge base was brought into play.

Nice find!

The 8 bit Guy did a review of this...

What section of the full keyboard is implemented?
General convention is that C in the middle of the keybed equates to middle C on a standard 88-key piano, though of course most smaller keyboards provide some way to transpose up or down a couple octaves.

THX, figured it was something Octavian.  [😱)] ]'>  do a pair of those things add up to a real piano? Can't tell if there'd be extra keys in that config?

I have ZERO musical talent, I played Clarinet by grim determination/sheer willpower for a while. Managed to reach to about level .025 on the Benny Goodman scale  :🙂
