Recapped: refurbished with new High Quality Panasonic Capacitor, read more below
IMPORTANT WARNING!
In January of 2017, Roland Japan released a press release notifying users of SR-JV80 expansion boards to return their boards to Roland due to a risk of the smoking the electrolytic capacitor. This can lead to a catastrophic failure of the board, which can damage the synthesizer.
"To Expansion Board SR-JV80 Series Customers - Published January 27, 2017
Thank you very much for your patronage of our products on a daily basis.
The Expansion Board SR-JV80 series has been in production for more
than 20 years since the initial production, electrolyte in use may
rarely leak due to aged deterioration of the electrolytic capacitor
used. If electrolyte leaks out, in the worst case there is a risk of
smoking.
Customers who are currently using the SR-JV80 series with sound module or synthesizer should stop using them immediately.
If you continue to use this SR-JV80 series in the future, please consult the Roland customer consultation center.
Actually
it's a very rare occurrance, but I can replace the capacitor with a new
Hi Quality Panasonic one. You can stay safe for the next 25 years at
least.

N.B. LEGGERE BENE TUTTE LE CONDIZIONI PRIMA DI FARE OFFERTE!This is the first of the three "Experience" expansion boards from Roland. These cards were meant to be an "appetizer" and a sampling of the best sounds you could get in the full versions of the SR-JV80 boards.
The cool thing about the Experience series is that a few of the patches on each board cannot be found in any other board: the patches marked with asterisks are in fact original sounds, even though they are based on the wave pool of the "real" boards.
The SR-JV80-99 contains 19 waveforms and 64 patches from the following expansion boards: Pop, Orchestral, Piano, Vintage Synth, and World. There are quite a few interesting and unique sounds on this board. Check out the following demos.
