“Have you been searching for a very rare classic/vintage synthesizer? Well; here it is! One of the MOST BEAUTIFUL synthesizers ever built… Any angel you look at it, it is BREATH-TAKING; and screams late 70’s…
What makes this gem extra unique and special, is the condition that is in! It has been well preserved, and is in MINT CONDITION! This wonder is adored by all collectors, and will keep on going up in value…
Needless to say, being in this condition, everything works perfectly as it was, when it rolled off the factory.

My wife inherited this from her grandfather. He was a very neat person, and a collector. So, it has been pampered all its life, barely played with, and mostly tucked away securely in the closet with the rest of the collectables (that we might make available for sale soon! Stay tuned…). I truly enjoy, and adore this magnificent synth, and really wish I could keep it, but the decision is not mine to make…
I am sure that if you are looking at this item, you know enough about it. But you can always Google it, and read all you need.
It is truly hard for us to part with it, and we hope this unique and rare beauty finds a good home, and stays in this condition, so one day, it may end up in a museum…”

“Collection only/ no postage.
Moog Opus 3 from my personal collection of synths. It is in really nice condition, works perfectly and sounds great – a real collectors item and a very lovely synth to own and play.

A common fault on some of the old Moogs like Opus 3 and Moog Rogue is they get the dreaded black gunk from the old black dust sheet that decays over time and ends up on the sliders and it all has to be removed. This has already been done on this unit, so you won’t have any problems with the dreaded gunk as it has already been sorted out. All leys work fine with no clanky keys. The chorus is also working perfectly and sounds magical.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Moog Opus 3 in good physical condition and perfect working order. Great sounding synthesiser with warm analogue sound for strings / organ and brass. Very nice chorus effects and filter. Minor chip to one of the wooden cheeks.The Moog Opus 3 is analogue poly string synthesizer released in 1980. The Opus-3 had 3 distinct sections for strings, brass, and organ alongside of two analog VCF sections, some simple modulation capabilities, an on-board chorus effect and a unique stereo panning effect.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“This Moog Opus 3 is in great shape and has been studio-kept most of its long life. Everything works. There are a few minor cosmetic scratches and signs of use typical for a forty to fifty-year-old instrument. (see pictures) Functionality remains unaffected. Two small knobs are missing but not missed.; One missing knob that sits atop the chorus DEPTH slider. The depth is still adjustable with a paper clip or a toothpick. I never bothered replacing the knob because I have always left the depth on full and only adjust the rate. The chorus sounds amazing, especially on the strings. The missing knob on the Organ/brass VCF Off On switch I replaced with a small screw and it’s easily switchable though I prefer to keep this always on.

This Opus is built like a tank. It’s ALL ANALOG COMPONENTS reside safely inside an ALL METAL CASING with REAL WOOD END PANELS. There’s a small area on the settings control panel that is worn away; below the Master Tune knob and to the left of the PITCH WHEEL. It’s strictly cosmetic and does not affect function or sound. Only the screen-printed top panel is worn, NOT the main metal housing. I smoothed it over with a small piece of black tape. It’s easily removed if you prefer. There is one key (low E) that shows a visible repair of the plastic. The note plays perfectly, is unaffected, and can be easily replaced if desired.

There’s a little noise if I wiggle the output cables because I’m currently out of contact cleaner. One small blast of DEOXIT and she will be quiet as a church mouse again. If my supplies order arrives before this ships I’ll be happy to do the cleaning for you. The unit will be very well packed and fully insured.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“PHYSICAL CONDITION: Good – Overall in solid condition but there is dust/dirt build up in hard to reach places. Some of the slider caps are missing. The wood panels are worn after all these years. One toggle switch is missing for the “Brass”-section. This unit definitely has some flaws but it is still a very cool instrument! Overall, the physical condition is good! WORKING CONDITION: Good – The 8′ in the strings section is scratchy and intermittent and the strings section has a slight hum when engaged. The Brass and Organ sections are working nicely, some of the sliders are a little scratchy but will clean up with a little exercise. All keys and controls are otherwise in fine working order. Overall working condition is good” Click here to visit listing on eBay

” Vintage Moog Opus 3 Analog Synthesizer w/ Flight Case

Tested and working great, all keys sound and scale excellent, all sliders and knobs adjust sound with little or no static. Has one broken on/off toggle in the mixer section but you can just use the knob to turn it off if need be.
One of Moog’s most useful synth’s in my opinion, super great for a studio or live.
Ships in a vintage Calzone flight case, the foam is getting old in the case but it will keep it safe on it’s journey. Will be wrapped and packed tight in the case.
These are getting very hard to find these days. Thanks. “ Click here to visit listing on eBay

” For sale is my Moog Opus 3 analog synthesizer.

It has just been serviced by the Synthersizer Service Centre in London and is sounding absolutely fantastic.

All pots and faders work perfectly and the classic Moog VCF is a joy to hear in the brass section.

There are some light dents and scratches to the wood panels as shown in photos and the organ panel labelling has come every so slightly unstuck above the word ‘organ’. Overall this synth is in very good cosmetic condition for its age.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

” The Opus-3 is one great little synth. It was designed by Herbert A. Deutsch from Hofstra University who originally nudged Dr. Robert Moog into building synthesizers and later served as director of sales & marketing for Moog Music. Herb also wrote the owner’s manual. The sounds are broken up into 3 categories: Strings, Brass and Organ. Strings and Brass have their own separate VCF (filter) sections, the Organ section has none. The Opus-3 also has 2 sound outputs for an early stereo effect with panning! It’s a colorful little synth with clearly laid out sliders and is fairly straight forward. It has classic analog Moog sound quality and is a great source of some string and lower octave techno-organ sounds.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“This synth is in pretty rough shape. It’s missing some parts, and has plenty of damage. The tech that was working on it for me, did have it making sound. He has since passed away, and with him my hopes of restoring this synth are gone.It would be a good parts synth, or and ambitious restoration.”

“This is for a Moog Opus 3 synthesizer keyboard. The unit turns on and works with the following issues:

The on/off button is sticky
The organ function works fine
The chorus function works intermittently
The organ/bass function has sound, but only static
Sections on the keyboard have some white dots from previous owner for marking positions

I purchased this and everything worked, but days later had issues. I’m not a keyboard guy so not going to take the effort to fix so selling at a reduced rate.”

“Up for sale is this amazing vintage, rare 1980s Moog Opus 3 analog strings/brass/organ synthesizer. Synth is in overall good condition. All keys play and everything seems to work, the only things I’ve noticed is the “right” output in stereo mode cuts in/out, but could be an easy fix – mono mode works great. A few of the sliders are a bit finicky, but may just need some cleaning. Comes with the power cord.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

” I bought this from an old landlord, used it for a few records and loved it! One of the switches on the mixer section is missing but doesn’t affect playability. Some of the faders are a bit scratchy but everything is functional, just could be taken apart and cleaned to be in mint condition. The wood panel on the left side also needs to be reglued. Very playable condition, but could be refurbished to be like new. ”
