Roland TR-808

“Selling my beloved TR-808. Everything works perfectly except the following LEDs do not light up: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15. I don’t have the electronics knowledge to say for sure, but I think because it is every other LED that isn’t working (see the final pic that shows the LEDs lit up), that the LEDs themselves are probably not burnt out, but it is more likely it is a single contact or some kind of buss in the electronics that is connected to every other LED as a group. This is probably a very simple fix for someone with electronics knowledge, but I cannot say for sure.

Three of the orange caps are missing from the Level knobs, and one white cap is missing off the Tone knob for the Cymbal, the start/stop button is missing its label insert, and one screw is missing from the top of the unit, please see pictures for these details. Otherwise this 808 is in great cosmetic condition for its age.

This 808 has been my favorite drum machine, and I really don’t want to let it go, but I don’t have time for music these days and I need funds for renovations, so I can’t justify keeping it any longer.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“For sale is a rare vintage Roland TR-808. This is not just any TR-808, this one was previously owned by Puff Daddy and came out of Daddy’s House Recording Studio. We purchased this direct from their head engineer Stephen Dent. He told us this was kept in the back, and clients had to specifically request or ask for this item to be used. It’s in very good shape and fully functional. Who knows how many legendary classics this exact machine was used on? Stephen & Puff worked with artists including Biggie, Mary J. Blige and 50 Cent. Don’t pass up on a chance to own this legendary drum machine owned by one of the greatest producers out there.”

Roland TR-808

“For sale I have a fully serviced TR-808. This unit works great & was serviced 2 years ago before becoming a fixture in my studio. A number of the buttons & potentiometers were replaced. The only part of the unit that was not serviced was a small gash in the power cord – the wiring is not showing just the fabric around the wiring – this does not affect performance & has been covered with electric tape. [See photos] I have some more spare parts (& some of the old parts) that weren’t used in its servicing that come with the unit. Works great & sounds beautiful! There are a fair number of physical blemishes that this 808 racked up over the years but they occurred before the machine was fully serviced & do not affect its performance. I love this unit but it is not used enough to justify keeping. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland TR-808 with Kenton MIDI

“Great condition Roland TR-808 Vintage Drum Machine with Kenton MIDI retrofit so you can use with your computer/DAW. My set up is mostly digital and very portable so I don’t use this anymore. If I had more space I would keep it but I think it’s time to let it go and find a new owner to inspire. It’s a beautiful beast of a machine, rightly hailed as THE classic drum machine, and when you get your hands on it you’ll see why.”

“Tested and working perfectly having had a thorough test prior to listing.

This unit is very tidy throughout with minimal signs of wear. Typically this model is prone to corrosion on the front panel but this one shows no signs of that.

The Jack outputs are also relatively clean with only minor signs of tarnishing which is an indication that the unit has been stored well over the years and that the internals have not been compromised in any way.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

Roland TR-808

“Rather rare, and as you know, very desired, Vintage Roland TR-808 – from 1982, in very good condition.
As you can see from the photos: missing a couple jack pieces on the back (a couple dollars at radio shack) – but all the outputs still work, in my testing. You can see the red #3 button is a little wonky, but is still functioning at 99%. Set for North American voltage (117VAC 50/60 Hz 8W) serial number : 062472
In my testing : all sounds/knobs/switches/outputs/functions/tuning/decay/level/tempo ETC are working 100%
The unit IS NOT in perfect cosmetic condition, but in very good condition for its 37 years of age. I purchased this machine several years ago, (not the Origional owner) it has always been stored in a smoke free studio, and the unit is sold AS IS. Unit is sold alone, with attached grounded AC cord, no manual – but at this time I see and hear it working fine. I hate to need to sell it, never sounds as good as when you are about to let it go, so much ANALOGUE variation”
