Because I am going to put a JP-8 up for auction, I have been looking at what
they are selling for lately. It depends on whether it has a DCB interface
or
a 3rd party Midi interface or none at all. If it was a later Roland model
with a DCB interface (in good condition) I would normally say between
$1500-$1800. But everytime I see one sell, the price seems to keep going
up.
On ebay (and they are always above the real value on synths like this) the
last five I kept track of went for:
$2125 (with MD-8 DCB interface and case)
$2000 (3 minor electrical problems and scratches)
$2325
$2350 (with Midi, mint physical condition but some flakey buttons)
$2876 (Encore Midi Interface, mint condition)
