"If you get an ideal of what this device does before you purchase it, you will not be disappointed. I did my homework before I pu"

Feature:
I did not receive any accessiories with my JS-5, although I did purchase a 64MB smartmedia card with the unit.

Quality:
The quality of the JS-5 seems to be really good. The unit feels very solid and the controls are smooth & responsive. I just purchased the JS-5 about 3 days ago, however I expect the unit to last a good amount of time.

Value:
For the features that are offered in the JS-5, I believe this product is worth its value. Not only can you use this device as a jamming partner, but you can create songs, sequence & utilize the drum kits as a drum machine.

Desirability:
I am happy that I own the JS-5. When I first reviewed this product from Rolands/Boss DVD Product showcase, I was hooked on its 'sex appeal'. To date, I still love the way it looks & feels.

Sound:
The sound in the JS-5 is really nice. All of the instrumentation sounds very good with the JS-5.

Support:
So far, I have had no reason to call support for this product.

Overall:
I think I will be happy with this product for some time. It seems to have enough 'gadgets' to keep me busy for awhile.
