Okay. I took the plunge. Got a decent deal on a slightly used G-70. I'll add Version 3 to it as soon as it comes in. Let's see how I like this arranger universe! :-)

Welcome, Mike.

Even though I've switched to an E60,I feel the G70 is the best arranger I've ever owned or played. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Don't let the weight discourage you; the features are definitely worth it.

From a fellow Mike in California (some call it Mexifornia now) and if you're our Governor you call it Kalifornia - Welcome Mike!

It's good to know we now have an attorney on the forum - just in case we run into any music Style legalities, etc. Although your branch of attorney law might not deal in copyright infringement, etc. >> Just kidding with you.. Sit back and relax and enjoy the SZ forum. Some of us tend to get a little ornery once in a while but we usually kiss and make up once our administrator Nigel Spencer locks the thread and we have to start fresh with a new one, which then gives us the needed time and incentive to make amends with one another - hopefully anyway.

But then it usually cycles again every 3 or 4 days or so, but if nothing else, at least you won't get bored reading the threads with all the twists and turns and orneriness spewing forth - until they get locked. lol

Best,
Mike

PS: I hope I haven't scared you away Mike. It really is a great forum with great people and a great resource for arranger keyboards.

Thanks all for your welcome!
As for the weight of the G70, I don't think it'll bother me. When I play with my band, one of my two boards is an Alesis QS8.2 weighted 88 note -- 48 to 50 pounds without the hard case. So, I'm sure I'll be fine.
Looking forward to it, and to reading a lot more here.
Thanks again!
