I am a keyboard hobbyist and I have a long history with arranger keyboards. I started with the Roland Pro E. That was an odd board as it only had 3 octaves. I played the arranger function with the left hand and a Kurzweil K 1000 with the right hand. I was hooked on arrangers from then on.

After that I went through my Technics phase (KN2000/5000) until they went belly up. Then I enjoyed the live sound of the Ketron X-1 and SD-1. Over time I became increasingly concerned with Ketron's customer service and long term viability. I sold the SD-1 and eventually got started with Yamaha with a PSR 3000.

I preferred the live sound of the Ketron's more than the more produced sound of the Yamaha's. However, I was blown away by the tremendous amount of free styles, sounds, and resources available to Yamaha users through the PSR Tutorial web site and others.

Last week, I purchased a very lightly used PSR S 910. I think it's an excellent upgrade over the PSR 3000 with improved sound, Super Articulation voices, more styles, audio recording, expanded Music Finder database etc. I'm just getting into it but so far it's all good.

I purchased the board from George Kaye. I go back quite a ways with George as I purchased the Ketron X-1 and SD-1 from him. I took a huge leap of faith when I bought the X-1 from him without ever demoing the keyboard. I did it because of the stellar reputation George had on this board with others who had bought from him.

Every purchase had been at a very fair price and has included some outstanding added value goodies. George knows his keyboards inside and out and will take as much time as you need to answer questions about the board before and after the sale. He's one of the great independents and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again or recommend his services.

Thanks!

Bob

I'm green with envy. I know you're gonna have the time of your life with it. I was sure hoping Yamaha would "roll out" a replacement at the NAMM show for the 910 so I could afford to buy one.

Regards,

Dave
