“I’ve had this synth for about 7 years. It sounds fantastic, looks beautiful and clean, and I’m sure I’ll regret selling it. From what I’ve tried, the new DSI synths don’t come close to the raw immediacy of this sound.
This P600 was acting up and had a recent trip to Wine Country Sequential last year to fix some underlying bugginess. In the time I’ve had it it has seen an almost entire replacement of the digital control ICs for the panel controls, as well as the replacement of all the original plastic potentiometers with nice metal, panel mounted, buttery smooth metal pots, and a new production membrane pad. It also has a new battery, brand new EPROM, and all original factory presets loaded in.
While it is completely up and running (and sounding amazing!) one of the filters doesn’t quite track. If interested, I can answer any questions or send sound samples regarding this.”

One owner from 1983 to present.
These were only ever sold with the synthesizer.

“Here is a really nice Casio cz-1000 vintage phase distortion synthesizer keyboard. It is a cz1000 model. It operates on batteries. We tried all the keys and functions and everything seems to work fine. The only thing I noticed is when I did the pitch bend, I can bend the tones up and down. But if I push the pitch bend all the way up or all the way down, it makes a high pitched noise. I am not sure if that is normal or not. It comes with a casio cover. One of the seams is kind of coming apart, but the cover is still functional. It has midi in and outs on the back. As well as the audio outs and plugs on the side.”

All buttons are present and working as well.”

“The legendary Minimoog Model D. They’re getting rare in good condition. This one is 100 percent functional and looks great. It was serviced in June 2019 – keyboard, knobs, and switches are clean and create no noises when tweaked. Buttons and vinyl cover are all in great condition. The inside was thoroughly checked and cleaned, including boards and keys. This Minimoog is fully calibrated and tuned according to service manual. It is ready to be tweaked and played for many years to come. Discover all the famous Minimoog signature sounds waiting for you.
Serial number is #10746. There are some slight blemishes on the wood surface, see photos. Compared to most Minimoogs on the market this item is in very good condition, however.
History: I imported this Moog from my brother’s studio in Europe, then it spent the last 15 years in my smoke-free studio. I’m selling because it needs to go to a place where it is being used more often. ”

“There were 9 versions of the Jupiter-8 and this is version 1.
Epic, vintage, legendary.
It’s the 1264th Jupiter 8 ever produced. Around 3000 were produced in total.
Based on the serial number I estimate that it was made around February of ’82, 1 year after they started manufacturing.
It’s one of the earlier 12 bit models, just before they started using a 14 bit D/A converter.
Serial no. 151364
Perhaps Roland’s most classic sought after keyboard.”

Korg Poly 61 Keyboard Synthesizer, 1983 – non-functional, Fair Condition. Condition is For parts or not working.
I have owned this Korg since 1996 and it’s always been kept in its heavy duty case. About 8 to 10 years ago, the voices stopped producing sounds when it was first turned on. At this time, it will sometimes produce some sounds after being powered on for over an hour. I believe there is a capacitor issue, or that the board needs to be tested and re-chipped. It cannot be actively used without maintenance work performed.
As such, I am listing this as Non-Functional and For Parts. Interested buyers would be those looking for a project or scavenging this one for parts.
The joystick in the picture was customized as the original broke some time ago. I still have the original joystick, as seen in photos, and it will be included. Perhaps someone with some 3D printing skills could replicate the original to fully gain use of both axis.
Note; the battery was removed to avoid it leaking and causing corrosion. I will update the photos with a close-up of this area. I do not believe that there is any corrosion, and I removed it as a precaution.
The case is overkill and extremely heavy and probably should not be shipped. The metal trim makes it a bit dangerous, and I think this was a custom tour case built in the early 1980’s. I will gladly ship without this extreme case and just use alternative padding provided by FedEx.
Any questions? Please do reach out! I want this synth to go to someone who will do something useful with it, as it’s a joy to play when it does work.
Shipped with FedEx Ground or FedEx Home Delivery. ”
