I couldn’t leave it. I just couldn’t. Yamaha Electone in almost new condition. €50. Was it GAS or a gift?

If I can find even one thing an instrument does well or better than others I have, it earns a place in my setup (space permitting). :)

Very glad I didn't say goodbye as it certainly was a good buy. Loving it. The rotary speaker is totally magic.
This just goes to confirm my theory that GAS is good.

Well, that's where he gets his name from.
Oh, wait. Is that an F rather than a B?
Doh!

I think they had this same model in the local community centre. Was a total joy to play.

That’s a lot of instrument for €50. Wish I had the studio space for something so enormous as an impulse buy. That’s literally the size of my entire music setup at the moment. Still… great find. Enjoy it!
