Korg Kronos 88 end of Febr.
Korg Kronos 73 and 61 will be in stock 1 month later

The first batch is for the pre-orders so it will be hard to find one.
The 73 will be in stock for without ordering in the months of july/August.

This info comes from the importer of the Benelux.

In the UK korg have stated that they should receive the first batch of Kronos 2(all sizes) this week and will be shipping them out to distributors next week, so I would expect them to be getting delivered to customers in the next 2 weeks.

Thanks.

So last friday I went to our local Music store where I have pre-ordered my Kronos 2 88 on 26 december and they showed me 1 88 Kronos just delivered in a box but there was another customer who bought 1 88 key on 16 december so I'm very disapointed because the Importer of the Benelux had promised me to handle first all the pre-orders...so we have to wait another 2 weeks.
They promised me end next week about the 12 march....

I can't believe this...

Basically pre-orders with certain companies stink.

I have done it before with Gear4Music in the UK, what total monkeys.

I actually managed to buy the item I wanted from another store who had it in stock in the end, still Gear4Music were still saying that I had a priority pre order.

Some companies just want your money and will lie through their teeth in order to get it

I checked with a local store and a Web store in Sweden where I live. They wouldn't get the 61 until June. So I ordered one from UK. Got the delivery yesterday. Spent the time since then trying to get the hang of it. As beeing a virgin Korg user I haven't even scratched the surface but it's been a lot of fun. I guess what I'm saying is order internationally if you want it before the summer.

My sensation is that they wouldn't expect such a big number of orders for the new Kronos and actually can't face all the customer's need...
