FR-7 V-Accordion
In our digtal age, even the ol squeeze box gets the future-rific makeover. Billed as "the world's first" complete digital upgrade to this traditional instrument, the FR-7 V-Accordion features something called Physical Behavior Modeling, which modifies the sounds based on your playing to mimic old-school "analog" accordion inflections. The FR-7 lets you switch between a variety of sounds, including woodwinds, guitar, brass, and other instruments typically associated with accordion playing.
Check out the FR-7 V-Accordion page.

FR-7 Purchase Price

By: Joe Zabukovec
Hi, I bought my FR-7 from Walter Ostanek up here in Canada. It was $6000 Cdn, which would be more like about $5,800 US right now based on the exchange rate. Recommend you go for the better FR-7 as it has the built in speakers so that you can play it for small groups without any extra amplification. One charge lasts for about 6 hours. I have had the accordion for about 7 months right now and still love it. Do a google search. The big requirement that Roland has for a sales rep is that they must be Roland and also understand accordions. So not all Roland outlets have them. Best of luck, Joe

Fr7 have come to one

By: P. Madsen

Dear Dr Hohner,
I trust you are doing well. Price of Roland FR7 is now nearing your mentioned limit. Best membrane instrument on domestic accordion market. Is your high interest still optimum at this time? If so, we will try to consider your request.

Roland FR7

By: accordiontome

I own an FR3s.
It is lighter and does basically everything the
FR7 does without the extra 10 lbs weight.
Makes a nice stroller accordion.
only missing 2 lowest notes and 2 highest.
37 keys which is a neg. IMO
BUT nonetheless has all the different accordion sounds one would need or want and also not as many but enough of the important concert instrumental sounds as well.
IT is also a LOT cheaper than the FR7 !!!

fr-7 roland accordian

By: sergio

I recieved the accordian and played it for 8hrs that day and i was disappointed that the battery ran out i didn't recieve the 19plug for it so that was the only way i could play with it. Its an amazing accordian i would recommend it to the best out there the price is very reasonable considering its capabilities so go and get one because you really don't know what your missing.I'm already pumped about the fr-7x i'm considering in buying that one to.
