EMS VCS3

Title link takes you to shots via this auction.

Details:
"Beautiful vintage Electronic Music Studios VCS3 synthesizer. This is a pretty early one in amazing condition. Very minimal cosmetic wear and works like a charm. Has a complete sent of pins. I bought replacement silver caps for the knobs that are missing them that will be included in the sale. There is one modifiaction that was done in the 70's by the university that purchased it or by EMS for the University. It is a pitch inverter which I have not played around with."

    Wrong - the White, Yellow and Red are fitted with 2K7 Resistors. It's the Green that are fitted with 68K resistors.

    According to the EMS site the red pins are precision pins: "The standard patchpins contain 2k7 5% resistors and the red "precision" pins contain 2% resistor"
