My PSR3K on sale!

Hello Synthzoners,
I'm selling now my PSR3K which is just a li'l more than 2 months old, pampered, loaded w/ midi files & regs. Used at home rarely for $1295 w/ gig bag, orig box & docs.

Jimmy,

The first question that comes to mind is "Why are you selling it?"

Gary

It's obvious Gary, He didn't like it .
I know it is hard to imagine, but it is possible!, there are people on this planet who dont like Yamaha keyboards !
Actually I dont either, they sound synthy to me, too artificial.
the sounds arent that bad, but the styles ughhh, they are very repetitive and boring, and simply makes the keyboards sound... well... like a keyboard !.
and thats not what I want, but then again its my opinion, I might want to give the PSR-3000 another test drive .

Marcel is right...Yamaha is just not for everyone. I had an Electrone organ, which I liked and have a Clavinova CPV 65...great piano.

But, I bought a PSR 3K and just didn't like it. In fact, I haven't really been impressed with any Yamaha arranger.

I like Ketron products and will continue to use them until I find something better.

In the meantime, the 3K is in the den.

Just my opinion....hope everyone is happy, with whatever you decide to play.

As my dearly departed father always said "Whatever floats your boat!"

Unfortunately, we still yet to hear an answer to my question fromt he person selling the board. Though I respect everyone's opinion about their specific keyboards, the only information I asked for was from the person who orriginated the thread.

Cheers,

Gary

Well....EXCUSE ME!


Russ

Guys-

As I need a good back-up board for my Tyros, a PSR3000 appears to be the one I'll be buying after the first of the year. The only thing stopping me would be if I could get an actual used Tyros instead, for a great price.

Send any relavent emails to me at corfieldb@aol.com

Thanks!

Gary, my sentiments exactly. Our junior member posted and left us to our normal pissy selves. Some people have an axe to grind, and that is great. But, WHY is poor Jimmy selling; that's the question.

Jimmy, where are you?

Remember guys, this is a holiday weekend.

'synerjim' has posted several times before and even joined SZ back in 2003. So I wouldn't consider him simply a troll or a fly by nighter, etc... He is a member - albeit a Jr. member., and doesn't post that often. But I expect we'll hear from him eventually. Maybe in the next couple of days. Hopefully...

He may be gone for the weekend visiting relatives, etc., etc.

Best regards,
Mike

Russ,

My post was not meant to be offensive to anyone. My concern was that something may be functionally wrong with the keyboard--mainly because I own one and use it to make a significant portion of my living. You would want the same information for your Ketron, etc. Yes, I am a Yamaha fan, for which I have my own reasons, probably the same reasons you are a Ketron fan. Like I said, whatever floats your boat. When someone other than Uncle Dave puts a relatively new keyboard up for sale, I for one am curious to know why. (I've always considered UD the best, online version of Keyboard Consumer Report available. )

Cheers,

Gary

I buy 'em - I try 'em .... I FLY 'em !
Someday, someone will make one I like!
The X1 came darn close .... the 3k is a close tie ....... they're almost there !

Gary...
No offense taken. I bought a 3K on impulse after seeing it at NAMM, without even trying it.....MY BAD! After trying it, I knew it wasn't for me...nothing else to read into things. Wasn't trying to get into the "my board is better than yours" trap or anything of the kind.

I'm giving the 3K to my granddaughter for Christmas, and she'll love it.

It didn't "float my boat", but that's just me.

Sorry for the misunderstanding...I look forward to the input.


Best personal regards to all,


Russ

Hello Folks,
Sorry for my delayed replies. I just got home from a long trip with my family & some visitors from Germany. We went to San Francisco, Hayward, & Sequioa Parks. It exhausting but we've enjoyed the trip.

About the PSR3K, i'm selling it not because i do not like it, in fact, i may keep it if i cannot sell it in the price i want. It's the closest to the ideal arranger i can imagine. I'm one of the first who bought it from George Kaye who has the best knowledge in arrangers in our area. Like most of you, i'm also a gear hog, i'm getting the new MidJay today which best suit my needs in my performances. I was awed by the demo George showed me on this MidJay. I always like modules due to its flexibility & portability. There's a lot of features on this Ketron module that i can eliminate my laptop & arranger completely. I just do not need two arrangers at this time & that's the only reason i'm selling my PSR-3000.
Regards,
Jimmy
