Hey guys;
currently, i found two used keyboards which im considering to buy but I cant really decide.
The Stage Ex 73 has a nice Synth, but im worried this model could be outdated or something, while the 6 HP is missing the Synth, but can download nearly every sound and also has more piano feeling (which might be a hugh pro, im mainly educated in playing classical piano but want to play all the nice stuff (doors etc.)). But im feeling like i would also have fun playing with the synth an its limetless options and also expect joining a really nice band soon (lot of Henry Paul Band kind of vibes).
The price is (both second hand) nearly the same.
Would be nice if some of you could help me with your experience

Hello joho2000
and a warm welcome to this wonderful forum. For the kind of music you mention I would choose the nord electro 6 HP because of its bigger piano memory. You will love the XL versions of White Grand or Bright Grand as well as the various Rhodes. Would be nice to follow your decision finding. Sunny regards from the middle of Germany.
By the way: Is 2000 your birthyear?

Hey Bert
Indeed it is my birthyear, thanks for the answer. And indeed, it feels really nice and welcoming here in this forum. After I oversplept (can you say that in english?) the decision I kind of feel to go with the 6 too...but I thought if I want to play piano I could always play a real piano, so I didn't wanted that to be a dealbreaker, but maybe thats wrong. Im gonna study soon where I wont have access to a physical piano, so maybe...ah this is hard
Hey Jo
Welcome to the forum.
The stage 73 has a semi-weighted keyboard. Good for organ synth.
The Electro 6HP has a hammer portable keyboard. Good for piano.
So, if you are leaning towards piano its an Electro 6HP.
