“It is in fair condition considering its age.
The original side pieces and keyboard end blocks have been replaced with solid wood which are exact reproductions of the originals.
I will send the original wood pieces along with the synth if you so desire.
All of the original slider caps and knobs are present.
The front panel does have some chipping around certain controls that were used often while playing (see pictures).
The interior of the synth is in excellent condition and doesn’t appear to have ever been worked on (see pictures).
All of the metal surfaces are in very good condition.
I’m including a copy of the owner’s manual.
As for functionality, I have tested all of the knobs and sliders and everything seems to work with the following exceptions;
1. When the the Lower Voice wave shape knob is set to pulse wave and the Lower Voice “foot” control is in the 8′ position, there is no sound from that oscillator. (The other oscillator on the lower voice still works).
2. The 3 position switch that controls the Upper Voice Vibrato is always on no matter what position the switch is in but the Vibrato sliders (Speed and Depth) still function normally.
Please note that you may find something else that is not quite right going on with this synth but considering it’s age, I would say that over all it is functioning pretty well.
The synth has never been recapped and being almost 50 years old it is probably due for a complete capacitor change. This will undoubtedly fix the minor problems it currently has.
I have made a brief video of playing this synth to demonstrate that all of the keys work and that is worthy of making music. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay
