Casiotone 701 Electronic Keyboard
This Casiotone 701 is in excellent condition. The walnut faux woodgrain wrapping on the enclosure is high quality and looks very realistic. The buttons are are very satisfying to press and the sliders are super smooth. The tones include all the classics, and some very usable drum patterns. This listing includes the keyboard with the wire music rack (stand/legs not included). The only issue with this keyboard is the drum-fill button does not trigger a fill. The drums do play however.

This Casiotone 701 has excellent cosmetics, it has very low playing time on it, and was stored safely for years. This is a fantastic example of a classic mid sized synth. Best part, it has its music rack, and optionally you can purchase the original Casio keyboard stand.
What we love about the 701
It’s relatively lightweight and compact, and has 61 full sized keys!
Very usable tone presets
It has a 1/4” jack that allows the use of modern sustain pedals
it has an aux out
has a very recordable on-board speaker that is relatively large for on-board standards!
great sounds in the drum patterns section
vibrato control with vibrato delay switch (the vibrato delay makes the vibrato kick in a second after the note is played, this is a cool effect design that has been lost to time and should be brought back!)
Sound wave decay and attack controls
Uses a standard IEC power cord
More features:
independent volume control for accompaniment
Tempo control for drums
Issues? Currently this keyboard is in excellent cosmetic shape, and sounds fantastic. The fill button is not triggering a fill. Other than that, the keyboard functions wonderfully!
