Got a house gig coming up that I want to leave a G70 at. Looking for excellent condition in US only.

Thanks

No, but I'll be carpooling (it's a full band gig) 40 miles or so there and back, and probably doing day gigs too. It'll save space and time, and wear and tear. Plus, as committed to this discontinued product as I am (and no sign of any immediate replacement, despite your constant predictions ) it seems prudent to have a backup in case of a problem...

Seems a great time for someone to unload their G70, as obviously superior as everything else out there is

That's your problem right there. Players who've got 'em, won't sell 'em until there's something worthy to replace them with. And there isn't.

Didn't Fran mention a while back that he knew where there were quite a few G70s?

Maybe they are still available.

Problem is the G70 didn't sell all that well to begin with, at least here in Canada and the USA, so a second hand one may be a bit difficult to find.

Backups are always good to have...it's nice to have one set up at home, and one in the case ready to go, or even better, especially when the instrument is as heavy as the G70...one at a permanent location.

Good luck.

Ian

Hi Diki,
Sent you an email but not sure if that address is still current. I have a mint condition G70, home use only by senior citizen (me) in non-smoking environment.
About one year old. Includes SRG-01, SRX-06 (Complete Orchestra), and SRX-07 (Ultimate Keys-installed).

Any reasonable offer.

Regards...Bruce Milne (252)-637-8071

Well, that was quick...there are at least two willing to give up their "superior" keyboards ...and there isn't anything remotely visible (or worthy) from Mr. Roland on the horizon to replace it.

Abandon ship!
