Inside a GEM



via this auction

Anyone know what model this is and what sounds it can produce? The auction claims it's modeled on the VOX Jaguar along with "Synth has a 1/4 inch output as well as a 1/4 Bass Output."

Update via Dave: "It's not a synthesizer - it is just a combo organ. There are 12 separate oscillators and then a bunch of divide down circuitry. In the pic you can see there are 12 cards in a row. The silver can at the back of each card is a tunable inductor, which allows each note in the top octave to be tuned."

Update via mewrth in the comments: "This is a GEM model P. It has identical electronics to a Vox Jaguar V304, also made by GEM :)"
