I liked the 465 but figure the emphasis could be more on the shell (grand shaped) and not sure if there is a benefit in this model. The 408 uses actual wood in the white keys. I have started to look at already assembled pianos as I am tired of UPS and want something nice to sit and look at (I will go and look at the LX15 that another poster here just got- that thing looked and sounded very nice) Kawai Es8 Korg Nautilus 61 Yamaha P125 Arturia KeyLab MKII Yamaha CK61
