Custom Minimoog owned by Steve Hillage

via this auction.

"This example, serial number 6390, is particularly interesting because it once belonged to Steve Hillage, of Gong and System 7. It's clearly visible on stage in some of his live videos.

The reason it stands out is that Hillage had this synth covered in a blue material which I think is Tolex, a sort of textured plastic used for covering amp cabinets. You'll certainly never see a more distinctive Minimoog, though if you want to restore it to its natural wood finish, I'm sure that would be possible (though it might need a good deal of polishing depending on how the Tolex reacts to being removed). Hillage also had this synth modified by EMS with an oscillator sync switch and keyboard transpose panel, but both these mods failed and have been removed; the key transpose panel might have left a row of small holes in the wood panel above the keyboard, though it's hard to tell without removing the Tolex.

The only other mod is that the S-Trigger input socket has been replaced with a conventional 1/4-inch jack socket; it still functions on the S-Trigger standard, but this makes it easier to find the correct lead - I'm sure a specialist could supply you with a replacement S-Trigger socket if you want! The rear panel of the synth has been removed for better heat dispersal, but again, I'm sure a specialist could supply a replacement. There's also a small rough oblong cut-out in a rear panel, possibly for some other custom connector which has been removed."
