Positives : You never had to back up the system.... The warranty covered everything (except fire damage)..... replacement parts were abundant......No one cared about the editor......


Negatives : Key are stiff and clunky...... Splinters.... The guitarist always played louder (some things never change).......



Nedim.... you have way too much spare time on your hands. :3dbeer:

...not to mention, their roadies were completely daft. I mean, the keyboards are set up backward - the ivories are facing away from the player.

I'm guessing that just outside of the picture is a pair of cardboard box speakers.

The Juniper-8 came before the Juniper-80. It was ana-log.

I decided not to buy it.

On the positive side, the kit was solder-free, but the manual that came with it looked like an Ikea assembly sheet and I couldn't figure out how to put it together.
