I have been trying to match this tone for a while, but no luck. The keyboard is very audible around the 45th second of the song. Any suggestions are apprieciated. :keyboard2:

I'd recommend you download the Saloon Upright and give that a try...

That's a tack piano — one where thumbtacks have been stuck on the hammer to give that hard sound.

Use the Honky-Tonk Upright piano from the Nord website — it uses nails instead of tacks and sounds pretty damn close just from the demos.
