New baby came home today PSR S975

[Robfind]

It took a while to find one but I'm stubborn so I found one online Archambeault MUSIC in Montreal.Ordered it on the 21st and it got here today the 24th.
Am I too old or this this much heavier than the per s950.

I gave it a little ride but I'm gonna have to work hard to make up for 10 years.I will pay my membership in the next few days.
Have a good week
Bob.

Hello Bob! Congratulations! I believe the weight is about the same. Tnose keyboards are heavy beasts, but, Oh, so much fun! Enjoy!

Welcome Bob and congrats on finding you S975.

... Am I too old or this this much heavier than the per s950. ...

Hi Bob,

S950 has a weight of 11,5 kg and S975 is 11,6 kg. So it's just "a bar of chocolate" heavier than the 950. Can be, it really is the AGE ...

Enjoy you new S975!


Best regards,
Chris

Robfind I might be following in your footsteps - I have the PSR s-950 but it has issues so I am thinking "975".

I don't have a lot of time to spend learning new gear - are you finding the 975 to be more or less like the 950 for functionality? [is that a word? whats it mean? lol] as in "getting around on it"?

The rubber buttons quit working on my 950, I wonder if Yamaha made that any better in the 975? How do the buttons feel?

Yep, it's a word— although perhaps the word you were looking for was "navigability"?
