“Prophet VS fully serviced from Switched On Austin, about a year ago. Key action works great, with aftertouch fully functional, chorus intact, etc..
There are surface scratches that can be seen in the images, but nothing that effects the actual instrument. Still looks quite stunning and suitably cold in any studio setting.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
“Extremely rare, works and sounds great!
Some notes: Slider is missing original cap, but the slider is 100% functional. Caps show up frequently and cheaply — check around!
Display is readable but still dim at maximum contrast, this is an issue with all VS’s actually, keyboard or rack. Just wanted to mention to avoid surprises. A new OLED display upgrade is also widely available and easy to install.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Sequential Circuits Prophet VS in gutem Zustand, technisch einwandfrei, wurde von einer Fachwerkstatt überprüft, lediglich Aftertouch funktioniert hier, wie bei vielen VS nicht. Die oberste weiße Taste wurde geklebt, sie funktioniert aber ohne Einschränkungen.
Es wurde eine neue Speicherbatterie bevor ich das Gerät gekauft habe durch den Händler eingesetzt.”

“Very rare 80’s retro keyboard. I’ve personally owned this synth for over 8 years. Perfect working condition–pro-audio shop cleaning/inspection on 06/18/18. There’s some general external cosmetic wear from the years and the data slider has been replaced once. If you’re a just a gear head or do freelance work..this synth has a one of a kind sound perfect for taking any project to the next level.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
“Prophet VS in excellent working and cosmetic condition. Aftertouch works great on this one. Has seen little use and mostly has been in climate controlled storage for many years. Still sounds and plays awesome! Hardly a scratch on it, just a few ligh ones on the bottom. Display, backlight, joystick, data entry slider and switch’s are all original and work great…just like it sounds!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

” Very rare item, reluctant sell due to moving and i have 16 keyboards and this particular synth in rack format. Never taken on the road, home studio use only. All buttons and knobs are original and working. Needs new battery for memory back up. Under $20 on eBay and easy install. Comes with very rare factory VSROM card #3 with 100 extra sounds. Nothing sounds like this synth. Strings are so lush and a very unique texture and stereo vectoring is awesome. Missing a couple case screws, a little paint wear from moving from stand to instrument closet over the years. Otherwise in xlnt shape for its age. If your looking for that sonic edge in your productions this is the vintage synth for you. PS… it comes with original owners manual too. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

” Hello and welcome to this auction. I am a home studio hobbyist and am putting up for sale some of my favorite pieces of gear. Please check my other auctions for nice vintage synthesizers and recording equipment.
For sale is my Sequential Circuits Prophet VS keyboard. These keyboards are getting rare and don’t show up for sale more than a few times a year. It’s fully functional, in excellent shape, only minor markings to be found. Check out the pics below for your own inspection. Backlight is out but the screen is still easy enough to read in well lit room and drop-in replacement backlights are now easily available on ebay. Everything is working as it should (no guarantees on the aftertouch, theses are known to have aftertouch issues). I’ll even include some extra sysex patches I’ve collected from ROM & RAM cartridges over the years, sent via email attachment to the winning bidder. Amazing vector synthesis sound with analog filters. Nothing sounds like the VS! Haunting pads, thick leads, bells, effects, it’s amazing every time I play it. Power cable included. Sad to see it go, easily one of my favorites, but I have a rack and don’t need the keyboard anymore. Grab this before it’s gone!” Click here to visit listing on eBay
“Ich verkaufe hier einen gut erhaltenen, technisch einwandfreien Prophet VS von Sequential Circuits.
Das Gerät im seltenen Rackformat hatte einen Vorbesitzer (Chick Corea) und war Ende der 80 Anfang 90 im Tour und Studioeinsatz, also somit auch auf seinen Platten zu hören! Also handelt es sich hierbei um ein Stück wahre Musikgeschichte!!!
Der Prophet VS hat Gebrauchsspuren am Gehäuse, funktioniert aber technisch einwandfrei. Alle Taster, Slider und Vector Joystick funktionieren tadellos.
Es wurde am Gerät nur die Batterie ersetzt. Sonst also alles noch Originalzustand!
Für sein Alter befindet sich der VS in einem optisch und technisch gutem Zustand und ist allein schon wegen seiner Seltenheit ein absolutes “Muss” für Sammler und natürlich auch für jedes gute Studio das etwas auf sich hält.
Wenn ein Musikgerät heute den Titel “Rarität” besitzen sollte so gehört ein Sequential Circuits Prophet VS Rack zu 100% dazu – denn er ist wirklich sehr sehr selten!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“This Prophet VS is in great physical and functional condition. The only issues are the data slider cap is missing and aftertouch is only functional via MIDI (typical for a Prophet VS). There are probably also some minor scratches, typical for a synth this old.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Vintage Sequential Prophet VS Synth in amazing condition, fully working etc.
Vector Synthesis was revolutionary when the VS was introduced in 1986 and opened up a whole new way of modelling sound in real-time. Using four oscillators per voice with 127 waveforms (of which 32 could be user), this 8 voice synth changed everything. It’s dynamic waveform crossfading via the joystick is a fantastic feature and mono-aftertouch and velocity brought Sequential into the modern age – just a shame this was their last synth.
These historic synths are rare to find in such good condition but remain very popular with EM musicians like Aphex Twin and Ulrich Schnauss etc. The use of the Curtis chipset for the filter IC successfully pulls the digital and analogue together to make the VS very musical and exciting synth to the ears.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Sequential Circuits Prophet VS – Matrix’s all-time favorite synthesizer! This monster synth is in really great condition and sounds amazing. Her warmth and lush tones will absolutely blow your mind. The Prophet VS, to this day, is still one of the most highly sought after synths in the film industry for its ability to produce the most hauntingly wonderful soundtracks. This Prophet VS spent most of its life stored away in a case at The Warehouse Recording Studio during the 80s and 90s. She has a bit of case rash on her sides but the front panel is nearly perfect. All keys, buttons, switches, levers, and joystick function as expected. The LED display is nice and bright, the LCD backlight has dimmed over the years but readout is just fine. The after-touch sensor has aged and requires a good amount of pressure. The analog chorus is stereophonic bliss and the Curtis lowpass filter is the best in the biz. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay
“Hi there, here a chance to purchase a nice piece of synth history, my beloved SCI Prphet VS with a custom made flight case, 2 cartridges – VSRAM Model 240 + VSROM Model 241-02 and a copy of the owner’s manual. The synth is in good shape and 100% working. It has been serviced a year ago. I did the diagnostics (LED, NV RAM, output signal, keys/keyboard) a few days ago and everything is working fine. I’d like to point out that one key is broken though it is still working. The broken piece is available. I’m happy to answer further questions. Feel free to ask! Item is located in Esch-sur-Alzette/Luxembourg. Insured shipping is available within the EU (some countries are excluded).” Click here to visit listing on eBay

This unit is in EXCELLENT condition!!! There are light surface scratches on the top and bottom of the unit, as well as on the front face; but nothing too major. Overall it is really clean! The joystick is missing the tip, but it still functions as it should (see close up photos). The backlight of the display is out (common for a synth of this age), but it is still easily readable with ambient light. No cartridges are included. ” Link

“Sequential Circuits Prophet VS
Cosmetic condition is fair. I would rate a 7 out of 10. Some paint chipping and scratches along the corners and edges.
Light surface scratches throughout the metal casing and along the keys. I added a few close up pics of the areas I felt needed highlighting.
Functional wise, all pots, buttons and slider function as normal. Pitch and Mod Wheel are normal. Waveform joystick is normal.
All keys function as normal with the exception of aftertouch(it was brought to my attention that the loss of aftertouch is a known issue with this model)
It should also be noted that the screen backlight is no longer working(also a known issue with most vintage synths) However, the text is still visible.
I added a close-up picture of the screen while powered on.” Link
