Our largest music store chain in Canada's largest store is located in downtown Toronto. I plan to buy a PSR S770 brand new tomorrow morning. They will order me a brand new one which will arrive in one (1) month. I'll continue using the one I'm renting until then. Thanks to George K. in the San Fernando Valley for pointing me towards the S670 initially. I like the bigger screen;
more on board styles;
and the SA organ sounds (with variable Leslie effect). This particular thread convinced me to buy a Yamaha when I read how the downloaded USB styles can be read directly from the USB stick itself by the instrument. I didn't realize other brands don't.
That was the final piece.
In addition,
have been pounding the 770's keys during my "evaluation" period with all of my might; they are DURABLE / UNBREAKABLE KEYS. I've been crushing the rental 770 keys as hard as I can hit them . . .
and "wow" they sure passed the test.
Thanks again for sharing so much good info gentlemen.
Please let me know: Am I overlooking any final considerations?
