I would think the EM-1, ESX-1, or Er-1 would be good for him. The Tenori On would also be a good choice.

I think an MC-303 might work, but might also not work - depends since there are some submenu or button presses that might not be apparent (that was a long time ago I messed with my friends though).

A DJX or some Arranger keyboard might work and be fun. He can press play on there to play preset patterns and play along with them. Roland, Korg, Yamaha all make them.
