Comes complete with the book of words, schematics and preset charts as originally supplied. Condition is generally very good for a 30 year old instrument. A few scratches here and there.

    I found one of these in a Boot Fair for £5 back in 1993! I never could get any useful sound out of it apart from mad Star Trek kinda stuff, I would imagine it needed a few new parts and a Factory Tune! I still have it somewhere
