No wonder itʻs always sold out. This music instrument is worth it! Itʻs great to play in a house where itʻs quiet. All you need is headphones and play on! I play the flute and violin and the sounds are really close to it. Plus Roland has been around since the 1970s!

Musical Background:

10+ years Guitar, Ukulele, Piano, Percussion, Flute, Violin, Singing, & DJ turntables.
