"I've always thought the Pro-One's case was flimsy and cheap. Well, of course it was designed to be, but I thought it would be cool if the Pro-One looked more like a Prophet 5. It took 5 iterations, but it looks like my father has come up with something that looks quite cool.
He used the wheel box from my keyboardless Prophet T8 (which he also built new pieces for in black walnut). He used Red Mahogany, though we had originally tried to get a slab of expensive Koa. Anyway, I hope you enjoy how it turned out as much as I do: link"
Absolutely Gorgeous. Thanks Stephen! Title link takes you to more shots.
Very nice! Now you just need to find a source of P5 knobs and replace the cheapy Pro One knobs with those posh ones... :)
ReplyDeleteDifficult to see from the small pic, but the larger pic looks like it does indeed have P5 knobs on..?
ReplyDeleteWow, that is nice! I like it more than the modified MS-10 that was shown earlier.
ReplyDeleteReally nice work on an exceptional synth.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but how did you get your father to do it?
ReplyDeleteHe loves wood working and vintage electronics. I live about 2600 miles from him, so I basically showed him pictures of my Prophet 5 and sent him an empty Pro-One case. He'd probably do one for you too if you ask him at synthwood.com
