Please read all of the information below and do not bid if you are not able to meet the specified terms. A family member who collected instruments owned this Roland FR-7 V-Accordion.  It looks black to me but the Roland website calls it "dark gray."  It has been plugged in and turned on to verify operation, but it shows virtually no signs of use that I can see.  It comes with the two Roland gig bags and the FAC-7 foot pedal unit that acts as a switch and a charger apparently.  There is no owners manual but see below for the official website where you can get the manual for free (or I will email it to you on request).  I have the original box and will ship it with the unit if it can be packaged safely that way. The photos were taken in low light and the flash shows up in some pictures due to the shiny surface.  Also, the "grill" on the accordion created some moire effect in some of the photos.  But for all intents and purposes, this instrument looks brand new to me.  I watched the demo video on YouTube and this accordion does some amazing things. Based on the fact that the current Roland product ships with a charger labeled FBC-7, I am assuming that this is the earlier "Version 1" model and would require the software upgrade if you wanted the additional "Version 2" features.  The only date that I could find was on the original shipping box: 3/11/05. For additional official info on the accordion including the manual, specs, and a demo, here is the Roland website address: http://www.roland.com/products/en/FR-7/index.html For your protection and mine, I am accepting payment only through Paypal.  That also means you get to use a credit card for payment through Paypal, which costs more for the seller but is probably best on a high dollar item like this. A $500 deposit via Paypal is due within 48 hours of purchase or the end of the auction.  If the deposit is not received, the item will be relisted or sold locally. Full payment is due via Paypal within 4 business days of the end of the auction unless other arrangements are agreed on by the seller.  If full payment is not received within 4 business days, the deposit is forfeited to the seller and the item will be relisted or sold locally.  The item will be insured and shipped via UPS or FedEx Ground Freight within 2 business days of receipt of the full payment.  Shipping will be $50.00 USD flat rate. I guarantee that the item is as described or money back (minus shipping/insurance) if item is returned via insured shipping.  After researching the requirements to ship an object this expensive and heavy out of the U.S., I have decided that I will not ship outside the contiguous 48 United States.
