| | | | The rep at namm said that artists requested a giant tuner exactly for giant stages. Seems weird to release it to everyone.

That's the actual size of the pedal! It's like a cartoon tuner or something.

I wonder how much it costs. $199US I bet. Haha. Seriously, who would need that except the biggest of rock stars? They're gonna sell like 200 units.

| | | | It's Roland, which means more than you would think it would sell for. I believe it's closer to $300. $279 or something.
