Can't wait...must wait

Hahaha and watching videos and nipping to pmt in Manchester to tinkle.

Best thing is I can read the manual in work and claim it's research.

I know I will be getting much less sleep in the coming weeks.

Just think this time 3 weeks from now mmmmm

I'll go anyway in case they have the RH3 73key there to see what it feels like.

Yeah I didn't dig the feel of that at all doesn't seem to have the same bounce back I am used to with my nord, glad I went for the 61 key version

They didn't have any Kronos in stock but had an SV-1 which is the same rh3 keybed.

I really liked it, it should suit me better because I tend to play more piano style.

Bonnersmusic.co.uk are showing the 73 as in stock, no 61 or 88 though...might be a glitch.

A little update from me, got an email from PMT that I won't receive my K2 61 till the end of April, despite the fact I ordered mine 2 hours after they were announced by Korg.

Apparently only the 73 and 88 key versions are currently available in the UK

Hmmmm PMT ensured me that they were priority vendors for the Kronos so would have it first...make of that what you will.

Do you know where the 73 and 88 are available, every site I go to still says pre-order/available to order.

Exact same promise I got, I emailed them back twice and get no response. Luckily enough it was baught on the credit card and paid off when the statement came back in, so the first place I see saying the 61 key version is in stock, I am buying it and doing a charge back on my card, won't even bother telling PMT.

Just registered on here because as of today I am the proud owner of a Kronos 2 88.

I thought you might like to know that some initial deliveries came into Korg UK yesterday, and mine was delivered to store today.

It has been on order for a couple of months, and the store said the current delivery for orders placed today is the end of March.

Just need to figure out how to use it now... and learn how to play...

Congrats mate.

I placed my order 2 hours after they were announced lol, I guess PMT isn't as preferential as they claim.
