Yamaha used to make an electronic gadget that allowed you to program chord 
changes into it. As I recall it had its own speaker but you could plug it into 
an amp. I think the chords could be entered on the small piano keyboard or by 
name: C7 G9 or whatever. Don't know if it is still around.

Some electronic keyboard have one-touch chords and memory -- so you could 
play a series of chords with one finger and save it. 

hope this helps.
