” 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. ”
