via the seller/listing: "purchased on August 26th, 1972 at the Sam Ash Music Store on 48th Street NYC. It is the first synthesizer I ever owned. The serial number is 1588.

It is in excellent physical condition, and in my opinion, near mint for a 40 year old instrument. Of course, there is some wear and a few small scratches, but it does not detract from the overall beauty of this historical synthesizer.

This Minimoog is in perfect working order. I play it regularly and just tested (as best I could) all of the parameters. In 2007, it was completely serviced by Kurt's Keyboards and Amps. The oscillators are stable and the sound is pure, classic Moog.

SYNCING: In addition, the cv in and out was removed (I never used it) and was replaced by an OSC 1 & 2 sync. The switch (blue on/off) and knob (External Input Volume) on the front panel controls the syncing of Oscillators 1 & 2. It sounds really cool!"
