Yamaha KX5 Keytar

“Yamaha KX5 Vintage MIDI Remote Keyboard Controller / Keytar Boxed

The KX5 was released in 1984. It is a 37 note keyboard MIDI controller. It features a ribbon pitch and mod effects. There’s also unison, sustain, and portamento buttons. further more, with 2 switchable MIDI channels you can control 2 synths on the fly. Fun for your home set up, or to rock out on stage!

This is a used unit but it is in great condition for its age. Has lived in its original box most of its life.

My KX5 shows some minor wear like some slight oxidation / pitting on the surface. Nothing major, please see photos.

The keys are bright and white, all text is clear and legible.

The ribbon control functions as it should, as well as all the buttons and keys.

The KX5 powers on with 6 x AA batteries or a 9volt battery. Batteries are not included in the sale.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
