“Korg PolySix AS-IS but I got sounds from it as they change when turning knobs,switches and wheels.. I got this from a friend who was a smoker back in he day..It dosen’t smell now, But some keys have burns..I was going to Rebuild it,but I’m playing again and don’t have the time..I’m selling it for parts but WILL NOT Break it up!!! It comes with Owners manual,programming charts and a cassette..I was going to try and load the tape,bit I don’t have a cassette player.. The Battery did leak,but since it was stored standing on it’s side,it don’t look bad.Metal case,Knobs Look great!!.”

” I am rather sadly selling my beloved Korg Polysix. This is a genuine analogue synth, first manufactured in the early 80s. I bought this particular Polysix from a friend back in the early 90s, and I believe this friend purchased it new. Over the last 25 years I have enjoyed playing this synth in a number of different musical ventures and styles, but now demands of space and cash mean I need to put it up for sale.

Everything is working on this Polysix – all keys, knobs, buttons etc. A few years ago I repaired all the key contacts. I have also changed the battery from the original (the original batteries were well known to leak inside the synth).

The sound of the Polysix is quite unique – very characterful, very organic. I love playing pads and chords on it, but it also handles lead lines and bass lines very nicely. You can stack all 6 oscillators to make fat solo lines. The filter can be pretty extreme. There’s also a great arpeggiator which is fun to play around with. It’s just a great synth for messing about and improvising on, so easy to twiddle a knob to shape the sounds.

Included is the original wooden case (I believe it is the original case anyway). This has a lovely purple fur interior for the Polysix to sit in. I have recently replaced the handle on the case.”

“I bought this a couple of years ago for a number of projects and just fell in love with its incredible sound (so so warm – think Boards of Canada for a simple idea). I bought it in the same condition (with the same sticker) for a significant amount of money as they are quite hard to find. It had just had its electronics cleaned out and tested (hence the rather annoyingly glued modulation wheel area – see pix). It has some marks here and there but plays beautifully – remarkable for these synths given their age. It has never been toured and only kept in studio. When not used for recording this was always covered and protected carefully. ”
