Hi guys ... sorry I didn't post sooner, but we've been 'on the road' and I haven't been checking in as regularly ...
Thanks Steve, for letting me know about this thread ...

Jerry, I got my case from 'nycase', but as it has been said, they are pretty much all the same outfit ...
The case is great, and in fact has been travelling with me the past week and a half ...I am playing a gig in Warren NJ tomorrow night, and we had some other travel plans so it was easier to take all my gear with me ... the case has been holding up to the rigors, as usual ...
I would not hesitate to do business with nycase again ... As I said in the post, they were VERY accomodating ...
Good luck, Jerry, and let us know how you make out ...

BTW ... the case has been riding in the back seat of the car with speaker stands, golf clubs, clothes and some other gear piled on top of it ... it has been packed and unpacked 4 times so far on this trip ... unpacked the kb tonight - not one problem ...

I thought since it is a problem to find a good case for the Tyros that I'd mention that the Kaces KKP9KB (now made too small for Tyros) which I and a number of others have used weighs 19.25 lbs. I went to Publix and weighed it on an accurate scale.

The Yamaha Tyros soft case weighed within a pound or so of the Kaces case.

I wanted to point this out so those in question realize that this hard shell case weighs about the same as soft cases. The Gator 76 case that fits Tyros weighs 25+ lbs.

So you can see it makes no sense to go for a soft case anymore.

The other one I listed in my above post weighs 10-12 lbs and is why I am strongly considering that one which is called a Tuffbox.
