That's how I felt when reading all the posts from the K61 owners.

So I'm hearing that July 7th is a date Korg is talking about for K88 related to Sweetwater, but my rep would like a week to go by to see how shipments really take place before committing to a date. (I did learn that I'm in the first wave so that's good news.)

I just checked out the 61 at Guitar Center 2 days ago and paid for and ordered the 88. They felt pretty sure 3 weeks was when I could expect it in. They were able to get me out the door at the prices I was seeing online so I opted for the local purchase.

The sounds and usability of the 61 were fantastic. Materials used in some places are definitely mid grade plastics and overall it could be a bit more solid in feel, but I'm pretty meticulous about caring for my stuff so i'm not really concerned. I am a little concerned that the RH3 action in the SV isn't as good as what I'm used to but it didn't feel bad and I'm sure I'll adjust.

I still heard it was still later July/Early August, I wouldn;t get too excited until someone from Korg announces it.
