Trying to re create that iconic Piano sound (Dario G)

I have struggled to get this sound for ages on my PA4x...

Its the main piano from Dario G - Sunchyme.

And here is a recreation from JayB on Youtube who uses the Korg X5 which is pretty much bang on the money!

I have set the master tuning on the keyboard to 446 and tried every piano voice in the entire board but still nothing comes close to that unique sound... its almost like honkey tonk but not... it sounds like it has some kind of chorus / modulation etc but i just cant get it...

It could also be using layers? M1 Piano and something else?

Anyone care to try and see if they can re produce it for me or steer me in the right direction?

thanks!
Nick

update: I have noticed a lot of views but no replies..

Ill re-word my request:

Has anyone sampled the Piano from the Korg X5/X5D for Korg PA arrangers?

Cheers

This Dario G piano is a short loops (<1sec) PWM cheap piano like M1 piano that is fed into a phaser or tremolo FX and maybe
via extra stereo expander or exciter FX.
You can also use in KBD Set 2 similar pianos with a light +-1-2 de-tune and maybe add a dark syn-strings pad with low volume
percentage and come closer to needed sound.
