I was always a fan of GEM products. In 1997 GEM was the first to offer a large screen, lyric and notation, utilizing hard drives for storage.Long live the SK760. Chris Anthony was the demo guy. Extremely talented musician.

No, its build new from the bottom with new drake technollogy.. advanced form of the drake technology used in the orriginal Promega series... so new inside


As a stage piano, the interface works quite well... so why change something that works?
