I have now had it nearly 6 years and aside from normal maintenance and deadening the key clacking, I have never had any real issues with it. I love it now like the moment I first saw it when it arrived. As I have always said, it is a big box of genius.

>> Frank, you obviously did an AMAZING job setting up this puppy! Incredible, clean, fast action. Wish I had the means to send you my beloved 400 #1485 & just say "Have AT it, my friend!"  Maybe one day. WOW!  Pretty incredible PLAYING too, I should add!  I'm think I've seen this clip before, but it sure bears repeat watching!  It's funny, regarding the key clicks - my first thought was that they were a bongo-type percussion effect recorded as part of that "most unique" sound! They worked in a jazz-sorta way, but yes, you'd only want them as an additional option!
