via this auction"There has been one modification done to it by the previous owner in the late 70s: a 1/8 jack socket has been installed on the back panel which runs to the inside someplace and provides access to pitch bend DOWN ONLY beyond the standard range. A small project box with an ON/OFF switch and a pot/knob can be plugged in here to achieve this bend down. It has no affect on normal operation and plugging it in is entirely optional. If I recall, there is a slight pitch shift either when the plug is in place or when switched on - I don't recall which, and this can be easily offset with the normal tuning slider. He told me he did this so he could pitch bend down without detuning the synth. It may be able to be modified to provide more options, such as bending up also, but these are questions for the new owner to ponder.
