"The wood is solid Walnut, not an inexpensive wood that has been stained to look like Walnut. Original Minimoogs from the 1980's are absolute 'classics', but the vast majority had stained-wood cases. Only a few of the earliest Minimoogs were made with solid Walnut, and they look spectacular to this day. These new Walnut Voyager cases are even better quality than those rare, early Minimoogs. The edges are beautifully rounded and the workmanship is superb. The pictures do not show the eye-popping quality of the backlit panels. Moog had these pictures professionally shot, and as they explained, "If we got the studio lighting right for the cabinet, the backlit front panel looked washed out. If we dimmed the lights to show off the backlit panel, the wood cabinet looked too dark." The point is, the Walnut Voyagers look better than the pictures - they really do!"
