Yamaha PSR 900 Review

This is a great keyboard for the price with a lot of versatility. That's the pro.

The con is:
The music stand supplied with the keyboard and is supposed to be attached to the PSR 900, is so flimsy and poorly designed that when you put a notebook of music on the stand, the stand comes out of the slots, resulting in the stand and music falling to the floor. I can't count the times that during performance I've had to stop playing, get on my knees to gather the music together, and reinsert the stand on the keyboard. Embarrassing, to say the least. Frustrating for my fellow musicians, as well.

I've written emails to the PSA 900 Yamaha contact, stating the problem and asking for information on how Yamaha recommends overcoming the issue. The representative never even bothers to respond - leaving me very frustrated at Yamaha and their contacts.

While the PSR 900 has a lot of good features -- I would not buy it again unless the music stand problem is resolved.

If anyone out there has a solution which works for them (other than using duct tape, that is), please let me know. I'm not willing to take a tacky keyboard on stage for a paid performance.

If I can't overcome the problem, I will probably look around for a keyboard from another manufacturer.

Sorry Yamaha -- you didn't didn't knock it out of the park with the music stand on the PSR 900.
