“The CZ-5000 doesn’t look pristine; it’s been around the block. But it sounds just the same as out always has. I’d be happy to provide audio files if you want to hear something in particular. It is very big and hard to ship.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“These were very cool unique synths made by Casio. They used “PD” or Phase Distortion synthesis which is somewhat similar to FM or Frequency Modulation used by Yamaha at the time (in fact it would be more accurate to call Yamahas FM synthesis Phase Modulation). Casio had a whole line of CZ synths and this was arguably the top of the line. It’s bitimbral and is an absolute pad monster!

This one has an issue common to these that’s making it unable to be used. It powers up like normal (and was working fine for me for years) but now no sound at any of the outputs. The issue is a stuck relay associated with the output. It’s a known problem and not a difficult fix, simple part swap. I just don’t have the time and I have too many synths.

Cosmetically it’s not great but not terrible either. The plastic case is faded to varying degrees, the fader caps are missing (though the faders are still usable as is), there’s some dust, scratches, dings, etc, and the battery compartment (for backup memory) is missing it’s cover. Also does not include the power cord but it’s a standard iec type which is like a dollar at any thrift store. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“It’s recently been serviced – this included cleaning the key bed, replacing a few caps in the PSU, fitting a new digital LED (much, much easier to read) and fitting some new keys. It works just as it should but these synths are 40 years old and the entire CZ range are quirky when it comes to their use. Sometimes if your working quickly you may find you have to press a button again before it registers. This isn’t due to a fault, its down to the design of the synthesiser using 4.3mm tactile switches fitted under a flexing plastic switchboard (like the monopoly, polysix and JX-10p).The replaced keys are a slightly different shade than the original and the chorus slider is missing but beyond that, its working fine. No crackles, no lost sound and all of the keys work. These are a classic synth used to create the reese sound on Just another Chance by Kevin Saunderson (Reese).This is a large Synth and I can post but it will need to be via a courier and at your cost. I would prefer collection” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Casio CZ-5000 Synthesizer in full working condition.

An amazing synth that sounds wonderful. It has a really rich full sound that puts most soft synths to shame, especially with the chorus engaged which really opens up the sound.

Cosmetically it’s in very good condition other than some light markings. Sadly I’ve lost one if the sliders but I’m hoping it will turn up at some point in which case I’ll forward on but I can’t promise anything.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
