For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. For those times when the exact sound is required, Instrument slot 12 is free for your own custom WAV sample. This can be up to 5 seconds long.

It SLIDES on many surfaces – which can be very annoying. I think Roland could have done a much better job by adding some good anti-slide bottom to it. Instead – you find yourself having to think of your own DIY solutions – like putting it against a mic stand when you have one around.
