Because Yamaha stubbornly wish to keep a 76 note arranger off their product list, I have been recommending the E-60 to some clients who desire the larger and roomier keybed.

I was basing it on my own experience, but now I have Cassp and Fran's reviews to support the recommendation.

I liked the organs in the E-60 a lot, as well as the styles...and I was really surprised at it's light weight considering it has 76 keys AND speakers.

If you don't need all the "extras" in the G70...and a lot of people won't, the E-60 is a bargain.

I suspect the next generation (E-65?) will have a harmonizer...maybe a less extensive/programmable one than the G70's in order to keep the cost down...just a guess.

Glad you're having fun Cassp...the XK-1 and the E-60 sound like a great combination.
