EMS Synthi AKS Modded

via this auction
"The Synthi AKS was originally owned by the Bavarian Radio in Munich in the late 80s, then he was sold to a small Studio near Nuremberg. Because of health reasons, my friend has to close his studio - i help him selling some of the gems he has. I took the Synthi and the DKII to EMS Rehberg for a complete service and now it returned in a really beautiful condition! It sounds WONDERFUL and is 100% as good as new!
