After player professional guitar for 40 years I feel the guitars on the Tyros 2 are great. The trumpets have improved a great deal – I am not trilled with the way the sax sounds.

Wow, how could all these opinions on this forum be right or possibly wrong? There are neither right or wrong, they are just opinions based on what the individual normally listened to. So we edit until we have what we want, which may or may not be what others like.

As far as fret noise --- Using the same guitar and the same amp. two different players will not get the same fret noise – the better player normally gets less. So where are we fret noise, although it adds realism to the guitar sound my question has to be, “Who’s realism?”

I worked with the same sax player for many years, when he listened to the Tenor sax on my KN7000 he did not like it, but he loved the guitar sounds. My opinion was that I did not like the guitar sounds but I thought the Tenor sax sounds were great.

Now Yamaha has to do their best to satisfy all these people --- I feel that they doing one great job.

These are only my opinions, John C.

PS, More jobs are killed by the a poor Sound system or the improper use of one than the keyboard.
