Wow this is a tough one. As far as boards I own,
I'd have to say the Korg DW8000 for its lush analog sound.
Followed closely by the Korg M1 for it's digital clarity.

There's a very special place in my heart for the Fender Rhodes.

The Korg Macro-Synth. I got it for Christmas, and am having a lot of fun playing around with it.

yeah Hammond for organs and Moog for synths, I also really love the sound of a harpsichord, mainly because it sounded really magical in this song to me growing up

I have to say, I just bought a Korg Kronos 88 weighted. I am absolutely in love with it. (even though it is in the shop right now for a bad PC board). I have used many different keyboards over the years, this is just one impressive instrument.

I play bass, but I have a soft spot in my ears for a nicely distorted Lowrey organ. Wink

I got a super cheap miniKorg from my dad a while back and that thing is the smooth sounding synth I have ever played.  I see why the Gorillaz prefer them

Acoustic grand piano (not one that is good for honky-tonk). However, if the keyboard has to be electric, ... then it has to be a keyboard that simulates the sound of an acoustic grand piano. Great for performing written music, improvisation, and WRITING music.

Favourite keyboard.......... a MELLOTRON.  But then there's the classic Minimoog Model D, a Farfisa Professional Duo, and a Hammond C3.  A Wurlitzer E-Piano is also very nice, but I play the bass, so what would I know..........
