I agree with you guys a hundred percent. I didn't even know about arrangers other than the little Casios until the mid 90's. And then I learned about them at a worship leader's workshop. They had the G 800 there as an alternative to a praise band. When I got back home I went to my Roland dealer and asked him to order me one. He had never heard of it and asked me if I was sure I wanted it. Same thing with the G 1000. I saw one at Mars Music and bought it on sight. The sales people weren't sure what it was, but I knew what it was and I took it home with me right there. And the only place I've ever seen a G 70 was at Chuck Levin's Music in DC at a demo that AJ from Ketron was giving. Roland products are awesome. I still use the G 1000 at church and in my studio.
