I just wanted to find out if this was rumour or actual truth from a reliable source?

I cant wait until June for a new Arranger!!

Nick

Why not?

because I sold my last arranger back in November 2010 hoping to have a new PA3x by April 2011.

at the moment Ive only got the Motif XF. great keyboard but no where near as fun as playing an arranger.

Ahh I understand. Yes it seems true that it will be june also for the Kronos.

Sweetwater.com will have the 76 key version in stock at the end of this month apparently.

PA3x76: "We've confirmed this item will ship soon from Korg and should arrive in our warehouse the week of 3/27." Sweetwater Staff

PA3X 76 key

I noticed though that the 61 key version doesn't list any date of arrival as of yet. You would think the 61 key version would hit store shelves first (including online stores) but I guess not in this case. There could be some sort of parts delay or some other anomaly that's holding it up perhaps. Time will tell.

All the best,
Mike

Officially in Oz, it is still July, and was always July.

I wouldn't trust a salesman unless he is willing to back his words with a reduced price to you if not out by his deadline. You would be amazed how most of them will start to hedge their words once their commission is affected!

If you can get one, I would seriously suggest maybe getting a Roland BK-7m to tide you over until the dust settles on the PA3X (we still don't REALLY know how good it is going to be). Probably about a quarter of the cost of a PA3X, you should be able to resell it if you don't need it after getting the Korg (but a good way to get a solid set of Roland sounds, too), and it and the Yamaha would make a GREAT combo...

Sweetwater only puts in the info as they have it at that time...if the date has slipped...you WILL see it change at Sweetwaters site soon.
