· I last played it a few months ago. There seems to be a little bit of a crackle and volume loss when you select a few of the sounds. I believe this is due to some switches that need cleaning. I selected a different sound and then reselected the quiet crackle sound and it worked fine. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Korg PE-1000 Poly Ensemble P Vintage Analog Polyphonic Synth. One of the rarest synthesizers, you won’t find another one of these in the US without having to import it from Japan yourself. I’m charging what it cost me if you include the shipping I paid from Japan. The synth was completely serviced before I got it. It’s in stellar condition, and cosmetically looks barely used at all. Two minor issues worth mentioning. The glide knob doesn’t seem to do anything I can hear, so despite the servicing, this is likely non-functional. The other thing is that when you put it into control mode, it sounds great, but when you play chords, there is some distortion. This doesn’t happen in monophonic control mode, or for the presets. From what I can tell this is the way the synth was made and it’s a design decision, but perhaps if you have a tech look at it they can mod it or something. An incredibly unusual and unique bit of vintage gear, makes use of korg’s really powerful diode ladder traveler filter. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Up for sale is rare Korg PE-1000 Polyphonic Ensemble vintage analog synthesizer.
The unit appears to have some unresponsive keys, which are 1G#, 2F#, 2G#, 5F#, 5G, 5A, 5A#, 5B, and 5C keys. I also noticed a few of the other working keys seem to be out of pitch, or has smaller output compared to others. Otherwise, everything else appears to be working well, all the knobs and sliders and switches responding fine to the best of my knowledge. No noticeable noise on the volume knob.
But because of the issues mentioned, I’m selling this as is for you to use with some servicing/adjustment done.
Cosmetically the unit is in reasonably nice condition for its age as you can see. There are some signs of wear and marks here and there, with one of the knobs seems to be missing the silver outer ring as shown, but nothing too major. I’m including plenty of pictures so you can see exactly how it looks on the outside. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

” The PE2000 was created in 1976 as I recall and has the one of the most definitive phaser effects of the era I think working with preset sounds through EQ and A-R envelope. And three oscillator divide down with all it’s analog glory. 🙂 This one has been reconditioned to perfect shape and I play it in ‘a few of my favorite strings’ video on the sounddoctorin youtube channel for a sound demo. As you can see the cosmetics of the keyboard is marvelous. The case has it’s wear and tear but nothing too bad. Probably could get some of the same type material and use a good adhesive to hold it in the little missing strip you see there. But I figured it’s just part of the vibe on this one and at least the parts that matter usually are awesome. ALSO note that only the middle latch works. The outer ones could be replaced by common latches if someone thought that important for more secure xport but didn’t seem a priority to me. I have too many string machines and need to bail out some of the expenses from repairing vehicles including an old ’73 wagoneer we’re using for prospecting that was sold to me ‘ready to drive’ with a cam that had flat lobes. lol. Doing some gold prospecting this summer. What fun! ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Everything works on this beautiful vintage analog synth. Full particulars available on line. It is more of a preset model than a synth, there aren’t a lot of buttons to push or dials to move around. The output is particularly low-noise; after I turned it on, I thought there might be something wrong with our mixer, it was so quiet! Although it has several voices, in my opinion, the two best are “String 2” and “Organ 1″ with the phase shifter fully engaged. In this mode, the effect achieved with the pitch shift dial is dramatic. Without the phase, String 1 sounds thinner to me, more like an ARP Solina. Cosmetically this synth is in VG+ condition with surprisingly little scratching; light scuffs to tolex but no rips or tears. The top is flat, which is convenient for the stackage of other instruments on top. No lid” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Legendärer voll-polyphoner Synthesizer/Stringensemble aus den 70´er Jahren – u.a. von Künstlern wie Tangerine Drama, Jean-Michel Jarre oder Hawkwind benutzt. J.M. Jahre´s “Equinox Part 8” ist beinahe komplett mit einem PE-2000 realisiert.
Der PE-2000 ist technisch und optisch in sehr gutem Zustand. Lediglich die Schalter und Potis knistern leicht bei Betätigung, was aber bei Geräten dieses Alters normal ist – manche verwenden Kontakt-Spray dagegen, davon rate ich allerdings dringend ab.
Das PE-2000 ist ähnlich aufgebaut wie die Korg PS-Serie. Das PE-2000 besitzt 3 Master Oszillationen, wobei Oszillation 2 und 3 in der “Tuning” Sektion gegeneinander verstimmt werden können um ein noch volleres Klangbild oder spezielle Schwebungen zu erhalten.
Die Vollpolyphonie wird wie bei der Korg PS – Serie über Divide-down Schaltungen erreicht, allerdings besitzt jede einzelne Taste ihren eigenen VCA.
Das Gerät besitzt 8 Presets, wobei diese jeweils einzeln oder 2 Preset-Schalter gleichzeitig drücken kann um diverse Sound-Kombinationen zu erhalten. Der Klang kann mit einem EQ (Bass & Trubel) sowie mit einem Attack und Sustain Regler verändert werden.
Zusätzlich gibt es einen sehr gut klingenden Phaser, der in seiner Geschwindigkeit geregelt werden kann. Ein ganz unglaublicher Effekt kann erzielt werden wenn man sowohl das trockene Ausgangs-Signal und den Ausgang des Prassers auf das Mischpult legt – bei einer langsamen Phaser-Rate ist das Resultat ein langsames “wandern” des Klanges im Stereopanorama.
Der Kopfhörer-Ausgang vorne am Gerät hat einen eigenen Lautstärke Regler.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Here we have a 1976 Korg PE-2000 in excellent condition. As you can see from the pictures it has been well taken care of. Unlike alot of synths for sale on ebay that are found in attics or basements after years of neglect then thrown on ebay for a quick buck, this one has been professionally owned and maintained it’s entire life. It also functions perfectly. It includes the expression pedal that was sold as an accessory. The expression pedal is in near mint condition and is a nice compliment to the instrument. Everything functions perfectly. Every knob, every button, every key, and every input/output works like it just came from the factory. It is missing it’s lid. I have had the Korg installed in my home studio for years and missplaced the lid. If I ever find it I will send it to the winner of the auction free, but I am assuming it was left at a studio or gig years ago. Except for one small torn and reglued spot on the tolex that is pictured and a bump on the decorative metal that is attached to the same corner as the torn tolex the intrument is emaculate. The wood is perfect. The face and keyboard look brand new. It is in excellent condition inside and out. The PE-2000 was a professional synthesizer when it came out in the 70′s and was widely used by the pioneers of 70′s electronic music. For a sample of the sounds, listen to late 70′s Vangelis or Tangerine Dream especially on the “Thief” soundtrack. This is Korg’s second production synthesizer and truely prehistoric when it comes to synthesizers. This was Korg’s attempt to get full polyphony in a synthesizer. It has three oscillators per voice and sounds monstrous. I recently sold one of my PE-2000 keyboards to a very famous progressive rock band and had the pleasure to hear my very own PE-2000 through a million dollar PA at their New Years Eve show. If you follow my auctions you will see that I have sold a few of my PE-2000s over the years. They are the only keyboard of their type that I have ever been interested in.” Auction ended.

Excellent condition considering its age.
100% fully working.Tuning is very stable.
Korgs first fully polyphonic keyboard released in 1976 and it does not disappoint.This was the real deal at the time as reflects the high cost (over 250,000 yen in 1976 !) and was used by Jean Michel Jarre. As per normal for this time its built into a case with a removable top section.The build quality reflects the cost , everything feels solid and aesthetically quite a beautiful synth.” Auction ended.
