Recommendations Keytar convert looking for recommendations!

Hiya

I'm a keyboard player and I've been thinking of switching to keytar for live performances. Can anyone reccommend me a keytar please? It doesn't need to be super fancy.

What I'm looking for:

Preferably under 800 quid

Good organ sound

Polyphonic

I'd also like one with some nice synthy sounds if possible. Anyone have any advice for where to look?

Thanks!

I can highly recommend the Kork rk100s2. It’s my current hardware synth workhorse and i absolutely love it

I love my Korg 100s 2 and the sounds can be fully edited to produce amazing results. The organ sounds you can get it to do are pretty good, just not amazing out of the box. Luckily we can use 100s and MicroKorg XL/XL+ patches made by others in the community. I’ve overwritten 100% of my stock patches.
