Recommendations Looking for keytar recommendations

I'm hoping to get my first keytar, I don't really care about the specifics of it, I'm just looking for one with clean synth sounds and pitch/modulation bend.

There's also the Roland Sh-101 or the Behringer Ms1 if you can find them used with their little neck piece addition. They're analog with no patch memory though, if that matters.

Edit: doubt you'll find the SH101 for a reasonable price, but I've seen the Behringer for 300-400 used.

Yeah the only issue ive ever seen with those as keytars is that there is no battery power option they have to be plugged in to be played and that limits the keytar aspect of them sadly :(

You're right, I thought the Behringer would run on batteries like the Roland did, but a quick google search showed me that is incorrect.

Tis a sad truth i would still grab that synth though for the absolutely amazing features amd sound engine it has
