I wandered into Sam Ash music on 48th St. in Manhattan this afternoon. Unfortunately, I was short of time and could not demo anything, but........they had a Roland GW8 that a sales rep said came in on Friday. I went there to really have a look at a Tyros3. The rep said Tyros 3 is slated for release later this year. I said no they have been released. He went to the computer and said oh yea it has, but out of 22 stores, there's only a couple of stores that have them. One was in LA. Makes you wonder a a chain the size of Sam Ash and the prestige I thought it had. As most other chains there were plenty of synths in stock. They did have most of the other arrangers from Yamaha including a left over Tyros 2 being sold at the closeout price of $2599. Also in stock was a PA800 and a PA500.
