LOL... No-one EVER helps me put the G70 on the stand. Despite being over 50, overweight and out of shape, I don't have even the slightest problem picking up my G70 and putting it on the stand unaided. In fact, even if I have help moving the G70 in it's case (handles on both ends), I refuse to let anyone assist with removal and mounting on the stand. THEY are more likely to drop it, slip or mishandle it than I am. Does that make me a strong person, or does it simply point out the ridiculousness of claims from many of my age and below that 45 lbs. is just TOO heavy for day to day use? I guarantee, almost every day of the week, you lift SOMETHING in your life heavier than that. If moving a sack of fertilizer, or moving some furniture, or picking up a keyboard amp or PA rack is doable, why not your main instrument..? Having to chose lesser instruments, with lesser keybeds to save 15 or 20 lbs. once or twice a day is a compromise I, at least, am not willing to make.

It has never been dropped, fallen or been damaged in any way. And I guarantee that in ten year's time, it will be worth more than your S900 (as a percentage, even!) if you liked that enough to keep it that long. Which you don't!

And, let's face it, if you DID like your S900 piano, you wouldn't be hauling around a P85 and using THAT'S piano sound. You would have an 88 controller and still use the S900's...
