Many years ago when I was working for a local dealer Lowery was one of the top brands we sold along with Emminent/Solina. All these instruments were heavy and hard work to move around. Most of the local venues Had a resident old Hammond B or C3/Lowery Holiday or like. Later I was teaching for a Yamaha dealer and saw the introduction of the HX modular range, arranger keyboards had yet to get off the drawing board as such,It was 1988/89 when Technics launched the KN range, this introduced Great sounds, arranger styles but more important was composer (not just drums) sequencer 8 track and the ability to use sampled sound and modify the structure like a pro synthesiser. But the great thing was it was Pro standard and you did not need a forklift to move it around.
