well, as a few of you may know/remember, I recently bought a midi-pickup for my Les Paul, and a Roland Gr20 guitar synth pedal...I'm loving this thing and really enjoying the sounds I can make with it.

I am now considering a keybaord synth, as my band has taken on another guiatrist (with my blessing and support) to allow me to focus a bit more time on synthy, electronic vibes, as well as my standard guitarist position...I dont reall play piano, have fooled around a bit, but never really tried to learn, mostly just play songs that I would play on guitar, but rearrange them slightly to work nicely on a piano...is this a hinderence when playing a synth? or not? should I look into this? Or am I wasting m,y money and time? is it better for us to get a full-time keyboard/synth player or what? any ideas?

also, does anyone know of any nice synths, that wont break my bank account (not a Microkorg or anything) I am looking for full-sized keys, and quite a lot of them.
