Korg Poly-Ensemble S

by

“For sale/auction is a vintage Korg Poly-Ensemble S string synthesizer, produced between 1976-1979. This is a divide down/Paraphonic synth, meaning that every key can be played at the same time, however they all share the same FX/filtering. The Poly-S has a number of voices, from Organ, Brass, Strings, Choirs, with a built-in Phaser FX unit. It’s an incredibly unique, and lush sounding synthesizer. This particular unit seems to be in working condition, it does have some scratch in the volume pot/knob, and the large buttons that select the voices have a bit of scratch to them. A few of the buttons for the voices get temperamental on occasion, but have never stopped working completely. It probably needs a good cleaning. Also, the power light has never worked since I’ve owned it, meaning I purchased it as such around 12 years ago. Also, the ‘male’ end on the power chord is missing some covering, see the photos for what I mean. This hasn’t affected the unit in any way that I can tell. One of the keys on the keybed has a visible crack in it, but was fixed a number of years ago with some super glue, again, see the photos for a better understanding of the condition. Lastly, the case/road case has a lot of wear on it, makes sense given the age of the instrument. Make sure you take all of this into account before bidding/buying. Sold AS-IS. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

· There are some scratches and dings on the device including some wear off the edges and a light cup stain on top (you can see in the pictures, and video above).

· The case tolex is in surprisingly great condition for being so old. .” 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
