Looks like it would be alot of fun for farting around, but to get any real use out of, I don't know. I think a DR880 would serve me better for song writing and stuff. I called GC yesterday to inquire about it and they had no idea what I was talking about until I told them it was on there web site and then looked it up. Of course the guy told me its not in stock. Like I said I would like to have one for playing/messin' around with.
