My band in high school used a big Peavey KB300 and it was great. A bit heavy as was mentioned but it was great not to have to use up PA headroom for the drum machine and synths.

As for number of keys, if your son is in to actual piano playing then a good 88 key weighted keyboard would be wise but if he's into synthesizer or electric piano or organ playing then a 76 key model would be more than adequate.
