Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

Lee S - yeah that would be cool. I definitely want to check out the board before I make the decision. I can bring my small digital video camera as well to film some stuff for SZ members.

Frank - thank you for the offer. I wish you were closer to me so I could come by your store.

Don't give up on those exercises. You only save about ten pounds moving to a T4.

You want to give your back a rest, go to the S910. You'd drop 20 lbs. playing that.

Diki,

I've thought about selling both my Sd-1 and my G-70. The Yamaha S910 does look very good to me although I haven't played one.

I like the fact that there is a huge library of styles available. My favorite styles of music are bigband and swing and Yamaha has very good styles in these areas. I got some converted Korg styles for the G-70 and some of them are very good but as a whole I've been disappointed with the limited number of good styles in these areas on the G-70.

If I went with Yamaha I'd need to get an external harmonizer because theirs sucks and I'm used to how good the G-70 sounds.

Donny thinks Ketron's drums are too in your face but he never used his arranger in a trio situation. When I had my Tyros I HAD to turn up the drum volume so the trumpet and sax could hear it. That is probably still a Yamaha drawback to me.

So for a while I'll continue my bodybuilding program of lifting adult beverages to my mouth and keep the g-70.

Tom
