Korg XE20 Reviews

A Keeper, for now.

By Ernest
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2021-09-27

I have always played arranger keyboards as a hobbiest and wanted to try a full size weighted keyboard with accommpaniment. This XE20 is describes as such, but it is not quite an arranger because Korg stopped short. I like the keybed and the sounds and styles are very good but the small display and lack of information shown is disappointing. There is no good on the fly arranging but as a piano I find it to be very good.

does this include the furniture stand pictured here for the $799.99 price?
Asked by: Frank
The stand is not included with the Korg XE20 digital piano. The Korg STB1 - Piano Stand for B1 Digital Piano (Black), BH #KOSTB1BK is the appropriate model for this keyboard.
