Having you understand why I would use a lighter action keyboard is not one of my life's priorities, Fran, but, I will tell you this...the PSR S910's keyboard has a terrific connection of player and sound.

I like the PSR action even more than semi-weighted FSX...the important thing is, at least for me, is that the velocity response gives me full control, which on the PSR-S910, is excellent...you can even press a key slow enough so that there is no sound; much like that of an acoustic piano.

Given that the overall weight of the instrument is 25 lbs, the advantages are even more apparent...plus, I have no problem using 5 octaves, whereas some may need 76 notes to do a proper performance, I can safely say that 61 keys are perfect for my needs.

My days of lugging around a 50 lb arranger, and equally heavy speakers are over...too many years of brutal martial arts, and hauling around heavy instruments has taken it's toll on my lower back, so I appreciate the luxury of having instruments and speakers that weigh less than 30 lbs, yet still give me all the performance I need...without sacrificing quality in any way.

It's nice you are content with the G-70, but please don't think for one minute that it's necessary for the rest of us to own one in order to have a high quality playing experience...that's just not so, and my own experience bears this out totally.
