Donny, I think you're missing the points made when we reference the Baby G. (I'm saying all this with LOVE)
First:
No one disputes that Yamaha has saved some of their best stuff for the Big Daddy. That's the way it should be. Lincolns and Fords are not the same either, though they often share many of the same exact parts.
Second:
The choice of the term "Baby" is used with reverence to the genealogy of its derivation. It's a compliment, so no need to take offense every time we users reference the fact that Yamaha has given us a more economical solution to using the best technology they offer.
Third:
A Baby G is NOT the Big Daddy, but it IS a super close, more portable, more affordable option with a specific target audience. We call it the baby because it shares lots of the goodness that the Papa has. No one EVER said they were the same .... but it IS certainly a fantastic representation of some of the best parts that the Big G has to offer. It's brilliant that Yamaha recognizes the different demographics in the market, and makes a suitable offering for each.

We get it. You LOVE your Big Daddy, but as many of us have said before - it's not the answer to everyone's needs. Certainly not mine. Don't let the success of the Baby G diminish your enjoyment of the choice you finally settled on. Use your Genos. Love your Genos ... and if it ever stops bringing you the joy you clearly feel right now, then dump your Genos. You'll have no trouble selling such a wonderful instrument.
Don't be upset every time someone sings the praises of the SX. We're all here for the same reason - the love of music.
How, why, and how often we change up our gear is a distant secondary reason to why we are all brought together ... FOR THE MUSIC.
Enjoy this little ABBA tribute ...



(For tru ABBA fans, sorry I chose Amandas version. She has such pretty eyes.)
