iv been thinking, and im not sure witch keyboard will meet my needs.

Im looking to play regular music, so it has to have 88 keys and hammard action and it has to sound real nice. (full nice rich tone)

but then I like to play some Dream theater, and some jordan rudess, so it has to have all the effects.

these are some iv thought of

Korg (the 1500 one)
Kurzil PX-1
or the roland FP-5 or w/e

the price range has to be between 1000 and like 1800

thanks for the help!

does owning a fender stratocaster make one play like jimi hendrix?

i've heard good things for each of those brands and i'm sure any model would serve you well. what you really need to do is hit a music store and try everything they have in stock. the only way you're going to find the right instrument for you is by trying it with your own hands.

Agreed. I recently purchased a Roland Juno-G, and that’s exactly how I came to that choice. Try everything that has the stuff your looking for.

A buddy of mine has a really nice Yamaha electric piano that sounds great, and plays nice. I think it’s up in that price range.
