If that is the acoustic guitar and organ sounds, Yamaha is a lot better.
Still waiting for convincing demos.

I disagree Chico. I found the AC Guitar quite convincing and the Organ sounded pretty good too.
Possibly the problem lies with your PC speakers?
Since the demos are .mp3's, which is a compressed music format, it is a less than ideal way IMO to truly gauge an instruments real sound quality and expressiveness. Plus if your PC speakers aren't accurately reproducing the sound, i.e. "not up to snuff", then it will make the demo even less representative of it's true sonic nature.
Hearing the demo through my Klipsch PRO Media 2.1 speakers/w Subwoofer it sounded very good overall IMO. In fact the AC Guitar sounded of Mega Voice quality to me.
If it/they (the Guitar voices) can be played Live with no drop outs or glitches, unlike the Mega Voices, which cannot be played Live realistically, then Roland will most likely have a true winner on its hands with the G70 IMO. At least, as far as Guitar sounds go.
Best regards,
Mike
PS: Chico, you may have top of the line PC speakers as far as I know. Sounds are subjective of course. If you have top quality PC speakers and you still say the AC Guitar and Organ don't sound good to you, then it is a personal opinion and one that I respect.
To my ears and through my speakers the AC Guitar and Organ sounded very good. Again, it is simply my opinion.
