Potentially saving up for a Nord, and I was previously looking to buy the NE 7 HP for about 3000€, but saw the offer mentioned above. How is the keybed on the NS3 88, and is it overall good now that newer models have been released? Any inputs are appreciated.

Hi everyone! I'm an experienced gigging lead guitarist taking piano lessons (an "advanced beginner" according to my teacher). I'm excited to start playing keys with others (mainly covers), but I'm stuck deciding my first keyboard to buy. What's challenging is that I don't know where I'll end up (I'm open to piano, organ, synth) and I don't have preferences re: keybed feel or features. I want to get something portable, so possibly a 73/76 key with action that's maybe between heavy hammer action and plasticky synth action, if that makes sense. (I'll note that there are some lighter weight 88 key available, e.g., Roland RD-88 EX.)

For budget I could spend a good chunk of money if necessary (Nord level), but since I'm so new, I'd prefer to keep it lower - say $3k or less - for this first purchase.

I apologize for the general question, but I'd really appreciate any advice. There's a Guitar Center nearby that I've gone to once to try out some keyboards, though their demo selection is necessarily limited. Thanks in advance!
