...GREAT Setup!...I used to play guitar (electric and accoustic) since my high-school days back in the 60's (heh! Show how OLD I am)- but keep my current Fender (knock-off version) in my closet these days...

...reason is I bought a Yamaha PSR 3000 "Arranger Keyboard" around two years ago and LOVE IT! (have a older PSR-??? also, forget which one)... Anyway- the 3000 can even play LOTS of the more expensive TYROS files (lots are available for free downloads) and it has amazingly realistic GUITAR sounds- 12 string, etc and Hendrix, Who, Frampton electric guitar settings (and I have a Wah-Wah pedal) so I can TRIP-OUT with my head phones on...heh!

Best thing about the 3000 is that it can be connected to a USB computer drive- so I have TONS of free songs, voices, arrangements on a 1.5 GB Hard Drive to access- and, again- people make some AMAZINGLY GREAT free stuff for these keyboards- including transpositions of other keyboards (KORG, etc.) so that there is an really awesome amount of stuff out there for the 3000-TYROS Arranger Keyboards...

I use Sonic Foundry's (now SONY) software for recording and EFX editing- plus some other MIDI arranger software- (used to have CakeWalk, etc- but haven't done much MIDI stuff recently)
