currently up for auction on VEMIA."The 55 has had a couple of sequencer knobs (one wrong, one cracked) replaced since the photo."
Update via an anonymous reader:
"This originally came from the RTB in Charleroi (Belgium) (Belgian Radio Television Station),where Felix Visser has obtain it by doing an super deal,in fact he has swaped an Ensoniq Mirage sampler for the moog ! Lol! The man that accepted the deal still works there and is up today still pointed with the finger… It was one of the last moog 55 batches I think and they almost never has used it. So this is an very good condition 55 (electronically)"
looks pretty clean...hope it finds a good home.
ReplyDeleteBy good home I hope you mean covered in confetti, glitter, and rhinestones and painted in a hello kitty theme, because that's exactly what I plan to do with it. Whut whut!
ReplyDeleteHEY! That's MY M.O.
ReplyDeleteHaha, there you are!
ReplyDeleteSwapping a Moog 55 for a Mirage - new lamps for old. At the time it seemed a good deal, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite story is the guy who swapped his DX7 for a superb Series III Moog from a college.... then absolutely insisted that they undo the deal because he couldn't get the Moog to work.
Years later, by the way, without any work being done to it, it worked perfectly as soon as it was switched on.
