Yeah, thanks... Don't know why I didn't read this one and comment back then!

In all fairness, only the Flamenco got close, IMO, Bill. No doubt, all the other elements of the style were superior on the Wersi, handclaps were delicious, etc., But there were some subtle things in the guitar part that the Yamaha was still superior, but overall, this one WAS a good conversion (oops! sorry, shouldn't use the 'C' word ).

But the other two... Sorry. Close, but no cigar.

But once again, I guess the fact that Wersi spent so much time (and presumable a LOT of money to license the technology from Yamaha) to make the Wersi Yamaha compatible just proves the point...

The CONTENT, not the arranger, is what most players consider the most important factor in an arranger. The best sounds in the world, without styles that make the best possible use of them are of little use... This is where the boutique arranger makers either don't have the budget, or just don't get the importance of this aspect of the arranger market. An inferior arranger with superior styles will win the game every time...
