Some of the serial numbers on the back lead up to 1982.

"Used but in unbelievable condition for it's age!

Please watch the test video. We do know that the keyboards need to have the bushings replaced. They electrically work fine but the action is not perfect and the keys sit at different heights. There is one burned out pilot light and 3 system bulbs not lighting. There are 10 missing screws that hold the modules in the rack. One of the 960 Sequential Controllers is only working through the manual step process and not auto repeating through the 8 steps. All the lights do work on it and I've been told it is an easy fix. One missing case handle, Tolex covering is 97% in perfect shape with just a few very small rip marks, one cut and a few dents.

Vintage Modular Moog Synthesizer Suit Case System From 1968-1970s [82] with 2 Keyboards

This MOOG system come to you from the Western Michigan University Music School where it has been in their lab since the late '60s. There is a manual booklet full of blue prints and schematics for the modules that comes with the purchase and the log-in books from the university.

The system has been tested and is 95% functioning perfectly. Please watch the testing video. When played the sounds of the past all come to life! That big fat low pitched analog sound produced by the oscillators is gut shaking to experience. Also the higher flute and brass sounding tones just sing out. The sequencer can generate another layer of melodies that you can then play over. We will ship this freight and cover the cost to ship it to you.
