Where was that !!!!!

There are NO stores in my area , save for one GC , and they don`t have any arrangers higher than a PSR-E403 !!

Do they have a brand new sealed in box PSR-3000 ?

Fran the keys are not that good , but it`s the rubber buttons that bug me,

But I have to admit , the S900 is the most value for the money.
It has everything , even stuff the Pa-800 lacks ( notation and score for one `er 2 )

I got to know where that place is !!!!!

Have fun !

Gary

My guess is the 2nd pic was taken at the Cherry Hill or Franklin Mills Sam Ash store near Philly.

I like the PSR-S900 for the very reason that it provides alot for the $$$...good enough for my doodling.

BTW - Fran, I couldn't help notice how your thumbs don't work...hope they heal soon!

Both stores are in Cherry Hill, NJ..


My thumbs are drooping from playing the heavy key action of the S900...

Sorry I can never get use to the size and feel of the PSR type keys..The Tyros effort at semi weighted are a little better ,but not nearly enough..and still under sized..

I am use to the Roland G bed and there are no comparison to me..

You can have an average piano sound and a great key fell will make it sound better because of the touch..On the other hand..a great piano sound with a poor key feel..is unacceptable..

You knew that was coming.

I tried to flip his thumbs around but didn't like the way it turned out.
