don't get all the positivity re the va-76. 3 yrs ago I was itchy to get me a 76-key, read all the specs and promo and owner raves on va-76, couldn't find one to demo-- decided to go on ebay to cop one, decided $1750 was my top... got outbid twice, once at $2100, once at $1850. was very frustrated, but turns out i didn't know how lucky i was to be a loser.Next one came up w/low starting bid $1000, and it was near me and I rushed up to try it at the seller's studio-- thought it was just awful, stiffest rhythms, corniest styles imaginable, sounds and OS not suitable for a pro..a tricked-out amateur's playtoy, in my opinion. Nice keybed? so what? ps..it sold at $1000 opener..if I liked it, what a steal..
