Roland GI20+P

Advantages: TOO MANY TO LIST!!!
Disadvantages: BELLOWS CAN BE A BIT STIFF WHEN NEW.

...The Roland fr-3s is the little brother to the fr-7 V-accordion, yet it is no small fry having a full 120 bass section, with seven registers and keyboard of 37 treble keys with ten registers and a dazzling array of features and sounds, it is lightweight and fully portable due to the built-in speakers and battery option. (It takes ten AA size battery's if you would want to use this function, and lasts up to two and a half hours depending on the batteries used.) Although I do generally plug mine into the mains. The electronic wizardry in this instrument means you can select from ten different accordion types, each with its own associated registers and to the ear is indistinguishable from its acoustic cousins, and as if that was not enough, it boasts several orchestral sounds including violin, steel guitar and choir. The fr-3s also has... Read review

Advantages: modifiability, portable
Disadvantages: need of electricity

...I have been playing the piano for several years, each week going to a class, hard training all the time, concerts, and once, I got for Christmas this new invention. --- Advantages --- I didn't know at all what to expect. Before, I occasionally played for fun on keyboard. So I thought that it is comparable to such quality = not having a real size of a usual wooden piano.

Advantages: Great authentic sounds, feels like playing real drums
Disadvantages: knowing that if you had £5000 you could get a much better one

...), MIDI (IN, OUT/THRU) Power Supply = AC Adaptor (DC 9V) Current Draw =600 mA Accessories = AC Adaptor (ACI/ACB Series), Screws(M5 x12) x4 ------------------- The brain is great, and is the main part of any V-drums, as the drum pads themselves can be swapped around, added to and upgraded if so desired. I found this very useful because Roland are forever making improvments and if you have the money, you can make your drums even more responsive. Unfortunatly the TD-8 is now discontinued, as it is one of the 'in the middle' drum kits in the V drums range that has similar kits available. Other than the TD 8, a recomendable kit would be the TD 3 for a starter kit, as its brilliant and expandable. But for a real pro, the TD20 is probavly thebest kit in the business. Maybe better than the real thing? Over all... i... Read review
