The most negative thing I hear in pro circles is that the
Genos is too large for every day gigging & transport..
"real pros" have steady bookings (longer duration then one nighters) or if a "real pro" has one nighters they can afford roadies.
Genos weight(28lbs 11 ounces) isn't even close to being a factor!!

I don't know what level you are talking about when you say "real pros" I haven't seen a solo or band with the exception of one for a very short time do back to back gigs in the same place. Its like owners feel its against all the rules of business to do it. Then again I haven't seen any "real pros" using arrangers. I know of Uncle Dave and Don but they are very rare exceptions. One friend of mine uses a Yamaha for drums, thats it. He plays LH bass and RH piano. His wife kills it on the Keytar, another misunderstood unpopular instrument, and they both sing pretty well.
