An airline (Royal Air Maroc) once destroyed a flight case containing a synth of mine (fortunately the synth survived, though a custom flight case isn't exactly cheap). That's why musicians are so afraid of gate checking their precious instruments.
- enneff 13y agoI would never check my synthesizer. I'd rather not fly.
- kubiiii 13y agoSynth lover here, what was the model?
- wazoox 13y agoActually was my master keyboard, a Yamaha PF-P100. It happened in 1995 back when I was a professional musician :)
- kubiiii 13y agoOh no a boring master keyboard :') Well those prove useful sometimes. They are the honda civic of keyboards.
- wazoox 13y agoActually doubles as a digital piano :) It's really an excellent workhorse, I'm still using it though it's getting really old after 20 years (some keys stick down now; some have been broken and glued back in 1995). For years I've been looking for a replacement but couldn't find one worth it (real pitch/mod wheels; 2 addressable inputs; hard piano touch; integrated amplifier for quick gigs; excellent piano sound; decent Rhodes sound; actually useful equalizer; absolutely indestructible). OTOH if you like interesting synths I have a wonderful 1976 ARP Pro DGX, and I love it but it's far less versatile than the PF :)
