Realistic Moog MG-1

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction. Check out current bid. $910 and under 45 minutes to go as of this post. Crazy. You'll be able to get a brand new Little Phatty for about that soon.

  1. I love my MG-1, but over $900 is insanity, no matter how clean. Over 5 bills is even questionable.

  2. Its so nice!, A lot of times the mg-1s on the bay are beat-up. I could understand that someone with unlimited money would buy that, because in my dream life where i win like 236 million dollars i collect perfect mint condition analog synths. I also buy all the TB-303s i see for any price until there are none left ( i always wake up before finding out what i do with them ).

  3. Yeah some times it's the idea of "winning" or "not losing"... it's abit steep for a MG-1...

  5. That's probably the nicest one I've ever seen. It looks mint. That's why the bidding went so high. Look at the prices Moog Song produces have been going for. Over $200. I THREW AWAY a half dozen of them just over a year ago. Sheeit. I think since Bob Moog's death, more people have become aware of a certain collectability factor.

  6. someone recently offered to sell me their "minimoog" for $1500.. I figured that was worth looking into.. showed up and it was an MG1.

    I tried to tell them that it wasnt even a real moog but they didnt understand since it says designed by moog on it. I suggested that I could write moog on pretty much anything but that wouldnt make it a moog.

  7. MG-1 is a real moog in terms of technology.. its definately not a mini-moog tho

  8. designed by moog music from what i gather but built by realistic (radioshack) I would consider the crumar spirit more of a moog dispite not saying it.. even perhaps the syrinx with the moog designed filter.. thats proper moog not moog music mind you.
