"Some sounds of the Kawai 100f for selling in ebay"

"This unit has been serviced and restored recently by Synthoma (www.synthoma.net). It is not exactly in collector's condition due to minor scratches in the wooden corners, as you can see in the images.
Also, there are 2 caps (VCA gain and HPF cutoff) and the rotary knob (VCO octaver) which are not the original ones. The original plate with the serial number was removed by some former owner, revealing an'original-and-non-used' rectangular hole for a voltage selector switch. This option was not applied on this synth, so its internal transformer is suitable only to use with 220-230 volts. Remember it before plug it...
It's a really good sounding mono-synth, with a punch sound, and warm. The filter is awesome with good resonance and no bass drop. You can turn up the resonance and the bass is still here. Lot of character! The LFO is very fast you can do extreme FX's or add a wild growl to the filter. The oscillator range is wide and very stable. Very direct, just connect, process with some FX like echo or reverb and fit in the mix very well like the old classics but for less money. True analog, you can feel it when playing this synth."
