Crumar SPIRIT SN N1 00020

"This is one of the most powerful and certainly the most mind-boggling vintage analogue monosynths around. Designed by (the big man himself) Bob Moog, Tom Rhea and Jim Scott in the early 1980s for Italian company, Crumar (from MARio CRUcianelli, in case you were wondering).

Rumours abound as to how many of these were actually made - they arrived at rather the wrong time and were eclipsed by the digital DX7 - as few as 100, definitely not more than 300. This baby is serial number 20. What's more, this exact instrument was previously owned by the legendary and sadly long gone BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Who knows what TV themes and incidental sound effects it has graced? A proper collectors item."

    "mind-boggling vintage?"

    What the hell does that mean?
