Bill made a good point about the hammer action being unsuitable for other sounds.

I agree wholeheartedly.

The PA-588 wouldn't be my choice as an arranger...I like the 61-note light action on my S900...Piano is only one of the many sounds I use and when in arranger mode, 5 octaves work just fine for me.

Still, the PA-588 will find it's niche and garner many followers.
