“Works great, couple minor scratches but nothing serious. One thing to note is that the power supply needs to be in just the right position in the jack to power it or you could use some tape to make it stay powered. Runs on batteries as well.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland SH-101

“It does not come with an AC Adapter (must purchase your own due to possible sound interference), modulator grip attachment, or batteries. It works great. The tuning knob is lined up a bit off, but it tunes just fine. It runs for a long time on 6 size C batteries, or an adapter could be purchased for little money. It is in great working condition and is ready to play. Has been well kept in its case, and has nice white keys. If you put the batteries in and it doesn’t turn on, simply make sure the adjustable plate that the battery nipple touches is lined up for the appropriate battery. It take size C or another Japanese battery, which is P-14 if I am not mistaken. I had a guy buy it and send it back due to this, but I made sure the batteries were lined up and touching the metal and it worked like a charm for me. The white blemish on the bottom seems to be able to be cleaned off, but I left it as I acquired it. It comes with a carrying case it has been stored in which keeps it free of dust and what not. I have video of it working and sound samples taken showing there is no noise when recording even to PC on an open line. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland SH-101 Project Machine

“This unit powers up and all keys play. All controls can be adjusted. Part of the pitch/modulation wheel is broken off as shown, but it works OK. The connector for the power supply is working, but is currently wedged in position to maintain electrical contact – it would benefit from being fixed more permanently. There is discolouration on the cover and damage to one corner as shown in the photos. The main problem is a constant low level drone from one note which continues even when the volume control is turned right down. With the volume turned up it is relatively quiet in relation to the keys when played, but it is still a significant fault, which is why I am selling the unit as seen for spares or repair.

There is no power supply included in the sale. You will need to purchase a 9 volt DC power supply to use the unit. These are readily available on ebay.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland SH-101

“Okay this needs NO introduction:

Ladies and gents the legendary SH101.

The tech at MPA just described this as “by far the best condition inside one of these I have ever seen”.

Been in my home studio for years with very light use and absolutely no stories or issues

I took high resolution close-up shots so you can see exactly the condition of this beauty.

Recent Full Service – 21st Feb 2018 including tuning AND intonation for the legendary tones AND true percussive sounds that often go missing with age. Cost £120 so factor that into any other item

The ONLY reason this is not listed as 100% mint is a scratch on the battery cover that I did about 8 years ago and the volume pot sometimes crackles on adjustment but NEVER in use. Advice on service was to leave alone and keep 100% original.

Complete with power supply this will be a gem in any studio / collection. I am setting this at a low low start so we can see exactly what these are really worth in this kind of condition and with recent service ”

Roland SH-101 with Roland MGS-1 Modgrip

” The Roland SH101 is a classic analogue synthesiser from the 1980s. Despite being monophonic (i.e only plays one note at a time) it was in high demand in garage and techno band recordings of the time, especially for its funky bass sound. Being light and often strapped around the shoulders like a guitar it was consequently a very cool looking instrument to play while strutting your stuff. It is one of the few keyboards from that era that has maintained its value and is still in demand.

I used it for several years in the mid 80s, both on the road and on recordings, but since around 1989 it has stayed indoors and unused in my home, snug in its hard case. As a result there are no scratches or marks to speak of on the body. I recently had it serviced and cleaned, ordered a new power supply and had the interior of the hard case refurbished. As you can see from the photos the case is also in excellent condition and provides first class protection. ”

“Roland sh 101 in good working order. No power supply but is shown working in pic 2. The portamento switch is missing and the bender knob is damaged but still works fine. See pictures for most accurate description. This was used for recording and live performances with my old band but has been in the loft for last 10 years. Needs a bit of a clean. Classic piece of kit that makes some awesome music in the right hands.”

Roland SH-101 with Roland MGS-1

“This package includes:

x1 used Roland SH-101
x1 used Roland hand grip for SH-101
x1 used manual

I purchased this SH-101 second hand in the 1980s. For the past fifteen years it has been in storage. Now, to save space, the synth needs to find a new home.

Overall, the unit is in good visual condition and was tested before sale. All features work, including the pitch bend wheel, hand grip, and sequencer. All LEDs illuminate.

Please note:

The SH-101 requires a little care. The unit turns on and operates, but the power socket and headphone jack have loose connections. I haven’t tested the other jacks. I have never used the CV/Gate.

There are marks on the casing to either side of the battery compartment (see photos).

One of the base plate screws is missing. One of the screws used to fasten a shoulder strap (not included) is missing.

The manual is discoloured with age and the back cover has a tear in one corner. Many pages are marked by pencil notes (see photos).

There are no original boxes.

There is no power adaptor.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland SH-101

“I am the second owner of this Roland SH-101. I’ve had it since 2011. I bought it from Far Out Music in Indiana who got it from the original owner. Their service guy serviced it before I bought it.
When I first saw it I thought the green was it’s original color, but have since figured out it faded to that color.
At least it faded very evenly.
I’ve used it on a few recordings and hate to part with it, but I play so rarely now. Some one else should have the pleasure.
The underplate is missing screws (see picture) and looks like batteries leaked at one time, but it didn’t damage any electronics.
All buttons and sliders and knobs and keys work as they should as well as the CV ins and outs. I’ve uploaded a youtube video just adjusting parameters to demonstrate everything works. I forgot to record using the arpeggiator and sequencer.”
