Its a very good stick... but before you buy make sure you understand that it may not be the exact HRAP version 1 with the reflective surface that your gettting
( for all your modding heads out there :P )
i know it looks reflective on the website but the pic you see here isnt likely to be the stick you get
I just ordered this stick last week (october 2006) thougt that i was getting ther HRAP v1 but turns out i only got the HRAP v1-B of the stick which cant be modded with seimitsu's
it sits in the box now.
payed a load for it too being international.
And all this after calling and trying to get detailed information.. thuth be told they did try to help me out but only came back with the model number, which... sadly is the same as the original HRAP so you cant tell what it is till you get it.
otherwize a great stick if you like sanwa sticks that is and you can still swap the hori buttons for sanwa's or seimitsu. (i wanted to go seimitsu with the stick though but from what im reading you cant with this stick HRAP v1-B)
