To make a long story short i got a new old kb

I haven't posted in a long while, but I have retired from active gigging at the ripe old age of 44. I was hit with a 911 cancer some years ago and post treatments (I'm in remission now) I don't have will power to carry, load and unload equipment any more, plus be up at all hours of the night. My bed time is 9:00pm on the dot!! So I have sold all of my keyboards and equipment. My latest keyboard Korg PA4X, which I loved, but I figured, why keep a $3k just sitting around while I can still get some $$ for it. So that was that. I recently came across an old relic, 20 years old as a matter of fact which I purchased. It needed a little TLC but I cleaned it up, put new internal speakers and after 20 years it still sounds good. (now I'm starting to sound like Fran). Even though I miss gigging, I'm content not hauling anything around and putting in a time on the keyboard from time to time.

So welcome home to my new old friend, Ketron X1. yep even though loved the korg, I'm forever a loyal Ketron fan.

Thanks, Mario

Mario, sorry to hear about your health issues ...
Enjoy your 'new' X1 ...
God Bless

Mario...stay healthy and good luck with your music the
Ketron X1 was always one of my favorites also.

Mario, I wish you good health, I love your positive attitude.

Gigging was nice for a season, but now you have the opportunity to enjoy your music, that is how it all started.

Keep a positive attitude with your health, it’s one of the best medication that there is.

All the best to you Mario . . .
I had to give up gigging several years ago due to a few nasty health issues and surgeries myself, I totally get it . . .

I have gotten back in the game a bit, playing and singing at my church . . . Hopefully, if things continue the way I would like, am thinking about gigging again in the future...

Glad you still have music to make, even if it is for your own enjoyment . . . Very healing stuff . . .

When I and the other guys in the band were younger, we would always wonder when a musician would say "oh,yes, I used to play" ... we could never imagine NOT playing ... Now, at the ripe age of 78, I know I probably won't be playing gigs (jobs) much longer, but I do hope to be playing music until my last day ...
