Genny,

I'm not saying that Yamaha shouldn't make a 76 note arranger...I just saying they won't make one till the time is right.

They know the market.

Perhaps the T3 will be smaller.

I had a PSRS900 but sold it... After having 76 keys with my SD1, going to 61 was real adjustment that I could not get use to...

Well Dan, I'm a piano player and use an 88 note weighted action digital piano here at home to keep my chops up.

I don't have a problem going to the PSR-S900 for arranger play.

I plan on getting a Yamaha P85 for the gigs that call for some solo piano work...it's only 25 lbs or so...and I've got the full 88 note range AND graded hammer action.

It won't be a bother to set up in my type of gigs...I have lots of time and room.

76 notes with semi weighted action is too wimpy for my piano needs...and it's bad for technique.

Ian

Of course, if they announced one tomorrow, it WOULD be the right time, wouldn't it, Ian?

Even a lapdog's not THAT faithful...!

In Yamaha We Trust... Amen

Hey Diki...I was wondering where you were.

Well, a person has got to be loyal to something.

Woof woof,

Ian
