Coaster Tim, I had to save for a year to buy my VA5...and it was worth every penny and every second. I've played all the top keyboards from Yamaha....Roland VA does it for me. The styles are just amazing. I've only recently started using the style morphing function...Its adds so much variety when playing. I've always loved Roland's sounds and having the SC55, SC88, SC88 pro and latest XV/JV sounds is just awesome. Each time I sit at my VA5, it still feels so new...i sit for hours on end sometimes. Roland your VA5/7 RULES!!!!!!!
