Roland HPD 15 Handsonic ***SOLD***

[Bilbo]

I have one of these sitting around doing nothing. Pretty much as new. Anyone interested? I am thinking around £400 as they are retailing for £800. Photos not possible as I have still not found my camera If you have never played one, they are astonishing. I may try recording some samples to put one here if I get a free hour or so!

Bump.

[Bilbo]

Bump - I was playing around with this last night and it is an astonishing piece of kit - fairly ambivalent about selling. Trouble is, I can't really play it - seems a waste having it sat there gathering dust. Noticed a big scratch on it as well; enitlrely cosmetic but needs mentioning. If anyone knows a percussionist who wants one, please let them know - I will get around to putting it on some other sites one day!

[Bilbo]

This is still around if anyone wants it. I could do with the money for something else!

Our drummer -who to be fair is no mean hand percussionist, he has some tabla training -has got one of these and he comes up with some amazing grooves with it. Great instrument in the right hands.
