Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

Nice!

Did I read somewhere on here that it got damaged and there's a split at the 5 way switch behind the trem?

Might have been a safer build with a pickguard/ stuff mounted on a panel.. .

Yes there is. I don't think those old Roland systems would fit under a pickguard, plus there is that dreaded 21-pin connector that kinda needs to be on the side of the guitar. And since the whole brain of the guitar is probably on a PCB, it's impossible to do a different arrangement of the controls. And also, because of that, the guitar volume and 5 way were installed behind the bridge.
