My interest in the 300 will be revised once they appear for sale again. Having checked when I sold my SLB-100, most of the retailers who suggested that they have the SLB-300 in stock are, to use a well worn phrase, actually 'awaiting delivery'.....
There also seem to be some serious issues around battery life, so I'm wondering whether there's some post-Covid component availability issues preventing more units coming off the production lines, it's odd for Yamaha to have gone to market with a unit with (alleged) performance issue and to then offer such poor availability, especially as it seems that not many players have taken the plunge and bought one yet?
The shame is that I bet it's a cracking instrument and had there been one available a month or so ago it would be sitting in my studio now 👍
