Goodness Goodness.....I think I need a new Yamaha Tyros,
Technics KN7000, Gem GENESYS, Ketron XD9 & or SD1.
Now I know I can't part with my 9000 PRO, but I could
maybe give my Technics KN5000 to my Daughter.
Sooooo that would be 5 or 6 KB's, Yie Yie Yie, I might have
to build a new room onto the house, This could get to be
expensive

Denny,

I sure know what you mean. Gotta have the best. The problem is, the best keeps coming onto the market every six or twelve months. My wife just can't understand the need to keep buying more boards. I think expanding the house might be my only alternative as well. Where does it end?

Regards,
Dennis

These may be rhetorical questions but they have real answers. You can write off 100% of the cost of new keyboards on your taxes. Pros do this anyway, but if you aren't making money as a pro musician, that's ok... claim a little income on a Schedule C and write off your music expenses as a loss. Keep your instruments in prime condition so they are easy to sell when you want to upgrade. Don't claim your equipment sales, just your purchases. I've seen people essentially buy new gear every year at no cost this way. Now you know why I sign in under a psuedo name.

ok...that post was great just for its humor, if not for the wisdom! i laughed out loud. :-) Z
