Weighs about 33 lbs, doesn't it, Ian?

That's more than a lot of people want to carry for their main arranger, let alone a remote keyboard just for piano...

30+lbs for the T3 (25 lbs for the S900), 33 lbs for the KX8... (plus extra tiers for the stand) Starts to make my G70 at 45 lbs somewhat of a featherweight!

I agree that it's all compromise trying to use just the one action for everything, but it sure saves a bunch of setup and teardown at a gig. At the studio I just MIDI the K200X into the G70 if I want the ultimate 88 wood sensation... or use the Steinway!

I think we need some kind of better way of describing weight of action, because to even think about an NP-30 in the same region as the G70 action is not even close. There's to my mind 'un'weighted, like NP-30, S900, and then 'slightly' weighted, like T3, PA2Xpro and most quality 61's, then there's 'semi' weighted like the G70, K2500, then there's the 'fully' weighted things like RD700, KX8. Mo8 K2500X, etc..

And that doesn't even take into account waterfall actions!

I'm afraid I tried the NP-30, and without a moment's hesitation I would take the G70's action over that..! The NP-30 was FURTHER away from a real piano that my G70, and that's not saying much But to haul around another 33 lbs just to get a bit closer than the G70 for piano sounds alone? Sorry, but not going to happen!
