Got it today, ex demo unit, no box (or rather a Fantom G7 box with an additional 0 scribbled with a marker), 3 year warranty, almost $1600.

The only "problems" that I see are:
The screen is a little fuzzy, as if there is some kind of interference or some thing is "boiling" under the surface,
the white lettering above the various sockets in the back is almost non existent (they probably used white spirit or a very abrasive sponge to clean it).
Ahh and it produces a lot of interference, you can't talk on the phone if you are closer than 6 feet to it.

All those aside, I am very happy. The features are overwhelming, and my mentality is still 61 key!. Lots of space to expand though, and the keyboard is SUPERB. I have to build up a little muscle on the fingers though, I am used in a very light keyboard.

HOW THE HELL DO YOU GUYS LUG IT AROUND? I had to take it up 3 flights of stairs to get to my house and my back still hurts!.

Thanks to all of you that helped in my previous thread where I was seeking advice. In my next thread I will beg for styles, tips, etc.

Old in the back, new in the front:

Trident, congratulations on your new G70 setup. It looks like a solid well built keyboard and a great studio piece. Enjoy.

My back sympathizes with yours cause I have the E 80 at 51 pounds.
Let your lady carry it as women don't get hernias
