Hi Chris,
I own a pre-dcb JP8 and I'm still thinking wether I should get it retrofited
or not...I don't like the idea of someone drilling holes in my baby... ;-)
Anyway, I'been on a stake out for possible kits as well and I was advised
(wisely) to buy the encore and do-it-myself-instructions. Reasons seem
impossibly simple to explain:
1) Encore is about 50% cheaper than the Kenton
2) Encore offers 70% MORE in use than the Kenton (in possibilities,
configureability)
3) Encore is waaaaaay more easy to install yourself
4) Encore offers you an extra memory bank...
Still wondering...?
Cheers,
RVe
NB: If you want more (accurate) info, check out

combination with MIDI-retrofit.
