FA-06/08 Availability?

Post by Keybdwizrd »

Has anyone seen anything from Roland about when the FA instruments are going to be available in the US? I see that Sweetwater, Sam Ash, and Kraft are taking pre-orders, but they don't have any dates on their sites.

I ordered an FA-06 and I've been told mid to late March for delivery. Imagine it would be around the same for the US.

From the info given by Ed Diaz on the , Guitar Center interview at NAMM, it will be available at Guitar Center end of February / Early March.

I asked Roland Canada via twitter and was told March also. On a UK site it was listed March 31st, so that info from Ed Diaz is promising that it might be sooner.

Yes, but Ed is referring to US. We know that in Europe is always a bit later...

Just spotted an FA-08 on the Grammy's during Pink's performance! That keyboardist must have some connections with Roland ;)

Ah, so that is what it was! I saw the keyboard as well and was wondering what it could be, had the lit pads of a Fantom, but another column of lit buttons or pads next to it.

Thanks, Jimmy for clearing that up.
