Anyone feel they want to grow the hair long and head back to the 80's with one of these? Jarre uses one, Thomas Dolby uses one, so they can't be all that bad.

Its the black model, not silver.

It was a huge battery hog, so I've modded it to run off a plug pack (it already has a midi cable, so I never understood why a power cable was such an issue).

No real idea of current worth: I suspect its around the $350 mark, but there's one going on US ebay at the moment http://cgi.ebay.com/Yamaha-KX5-Remote-KeyBoard-Midi-Keytar-Controller_W0QQitemZ150217822977QQihZ005QQcategoryZ621QQcmdZViewItem

I'm not using it, so if you can, lets talk. I'd swap for something interesting.

Hi Chris,

I'm thinking of growing my hair long again, do you still have the KX-5 you mentioned ?? I may be interested in purchasing it from you.

regards
Dave
