"Super rare 1980 Crumar Toccata synthesizer. This is a great Hammond clone. Crumar synthesizers were originally designed by Bob Moog. This is Italian made and very rare. You see a couple a year on Ebay... No shipping to Russia, Italy or India."

Search is only bringing up two previously posted here, one in 2007 and one in 2008.

Update via fanwander in the comments: "Just to make it clear for the blog. The statement "Crumar synthesizers were originally designed by Bob Moog" is wrong. Bob Moog was involved only in the concept (not the detailled engineering) of the Crumar Spirit. All other Crumar instruments from this time are original designs by the crumar engineers." More confirmations in the comments.

  1. Just to make it clear for the blog. The statement "Crumar synthesizers were originally designed by Bob Moog" is wrong. Bob Moog was involved only in the concept (not the detailled engineering) of the Crumar Spirit. All other Crumar instruments from this time are original designs by the crumar engineers.

  2. Yes. In particular from the founder Mario Crucianelli.

  3. fanwander is correct. The Crumar Spirit was afaik the ONLY Crumar synth that was co-designed by Bob Moog.
    Further, I wouldn't say this model is super rare, I've seen lots of Toccata's up fpr sale throughout the years.
