Subject:RE: Korg BX-3 soft case?

Well the guy with the Fantom 88 came over tonight and that MF is heavy. And
guess what? He carried it in a Kaces soft case with wheels. And it fit in
his Beamer! This guys had the Fantom with all the extra piano sounds fully
loaded and he is blown away by my Electro!! Carrying that thing around I
would be too.
