"It was manufactured in 1979, hard to believe when you see the synth, it looks almost new. This synth has 3 sections : string synth, organ and polyphonic synth. The strings are very close and in some ways better than the Solina (i compared them side by side when i had the Solina) [not me, the seller] The organ sounds great and has
drawbars so you can dial in many organ sounds. The Polyphonic synth section, while very basic, sounds great and unmistakably vintage. The best feature of this synth is that all these sounds are stackable, creating nice unique texture. This is also helped by the fact that the effects section sounds amazing : it has vibrato, tremolo and an "ensemble" type chorus similar to the Solina. The vibrato actually slows down and speeds up to create a leslie-type effect. This synth is a good way to get the 'typical string sound of the 70s and beyond (from Pink Floyd to the Cure to Sigor Ros), it's built really well, better than most other string synths, making a good long-term investment."
