Hey from Canada. I'm a later life ( ie over 40, then) weekend warrior who did a lot of research before getting the PC3x years ago -and was never disappointed.

But, the 50 lbs (22 or so kg for non-Americans) took its toll on my roadie - me. So, more research... How do I get a lighter version while taking advantage of intervening tech improvements?? Enter the Forte7!

Forte is used to entertain myself with my own compositions & to play in the sometime-gigging garage band. Repertoire: the usual mix of Tom Petty, Stones (ugh!, but we all have to live with guitarists), Van Morrison, etc, and an even less occasional jazz group.

I am glad to have found this site as I lost track of the last Kurzweil-focused discussion group!
