Are you sure SW is getting them on Wednesday? I have not heard from my sales person yet, so I emailed him to check. I hope you are right.

No word from my Sweetwater rep either - I just sent him an email. Hopefully this is all true! I should know tomorrow.

My SE at SW says their first shipment should get to SW on the 29th.

They aren't honoring the GC July 4 price for me, though. If they do for someone else, post the invoice number!

My rep definitely shared information about their tracking number and said they're due to arrive at SW on Wednesday.

My Sweetwater rep confirmed first shipments of 73/88 are expected to arrive at Sweetwater Wednesday and ship out to customers on the same day. I can't wait

I finally got my "show me the love" call from Sweetwater confirming what you all are hearing about K88 shipments this week. Ground to Wisconsin may take to Saturday but looking at a holiday weekend with a new Kronos!

My Sweetwater online invoice was updated today to include my Kronos 88 discount and a couple other goodies that I've ordered. I suspect I should see shipment notification tomorrow! (I'm around #7 in the K-88 queue.)

I've pre-arranged for my wife to be happily occupied while my brain gets wrapped around this beast.

:D

A good sign

My credit card company called today to confirm suspicious activity on my account. I confirmed that it was from Sweetwater--meaning that Sweetwater must have received the shipment and charged my card and is ready to ship out!!

I got the 73.

Historically I have always purchased 88 note keyboards but

a) I'm tired of lugging them around
b) I have less space in my car now due to my childrens car seats
c) Since the 73 has weighted keys, i can live without the extra octave

I got my confirmation invoice from sweetwater; i guess it will be updated tomorrow with an arrival date

Not sure if it will be 2 days or 3 days
