Hi,
it's not unusual that the next model will have a different size. Yamaha users, exchanging the PSR 9000 by Tyros can't use the old case, the same as Korg users.
About gig bags, no problem. The same gig bag fits with Yamaha 9000 pro, G 1000, VA 76 and G 70.
Possibly the customers will understand the G 70 as a better "V-Combo" and use it in a band.
If I had the money, I would combine G70 with Yamaha Tyros and the G70 styles use only, when I don't find a satisfying Yamaha style (because there are many Yamaha 4 variation styles available and no Roland 4 variation styles).

Roand came out with a reedless accordion,but what happened to the arranger modules like the ra800. Does anyone know if Roland will come out with a new arranger module(possibly with the features like their new keyboard),that accordion players can use? I'm still using the ra800.

John, I think you, Don Mason, Scott Yee and myself, were the only people to buy an RA800...maybe they needed more sales to continue the module...[You will see one in the future]..

Hi,
if Yamaha would offer a non key version of Tyros, so we could use the G70 together with the Yamaha sounds and styles. But they have the need to sell keys.
Pretty tough, if you want all the features of Korg PA1x, Tyros and Roland G70, you have to use 3 keyboards!

anyone knows when the G70 is gonna be released in the USA?

Would love to find a place to mess with it for a few hours

Roland will introduce the G70 on January 20 at the NAMM show in California. I would assume release date to the stores will follow shortly after the show.
