Goal:

• To explore and modify a Casio SK-5 keyboard

Background:

• I was walking around the local flea market when I spoted a keyboard on one of the vender's tables. I'm always on the look out for cheap keyboards to screw around with, but I didn't expect to find a casio SK-x keyboard. Sure enough, that's what the guy was selling. I asked him a few questions about it, turns out that the keyboard was his daughter's toy and she just went off to college or something. The keyboard was in working order according to him, just sans power transformer. I told him that didn't matter, and asked how much he wanted for it. Answer: $4.00us. Gotta love it when you make a great find at the flea market, heh.
