via this auction"What we have here is a Future Retro 777 Analog Synthesizer. If you are here, you probably already know all about how awesome this piece of equipment is. It's basically a roland TB-303 on steroids. More features. Better build quality. Sexy knobs. Gut wrenching sounds.
But wait! There's a story to this particular unit.
My name is Max Neutra. I am an artist in Los Angles. Before I was a painter, I made electronic music. I purchased this particular 777 from a guy named Justin Maxwell, who was an established music maker at the time. He had earned the 777 in trade for producing the Future Retro website. After I got my hands on it, I used it in several songs on my album Automation Addiction (Available from Mofohifi Records on itunes and Amazon). You can hear the album in it's entirety at my website. Just google me.
I also created a 777 promo song that is featured on the Future Retro website (in the 777 section).
I have to be honest and say that I am sorry to see this beauty go. It is one of my prize possessions. Unfortunately, I'm not making the music so much any more, and I hate to see this just sitting in the darkness, never being used. Can you give this piece a happy home?
It is in excellent condition. Like new, except for a couple dings on the back. Everything else is spotless, including the wood. I took good care of it. A couple years ago I sent it in to Future Retro for an overhaul. They installed the latest software (V 2.1) and tuned and cleaned. The auction includes the original manual, a sheet of patches, and the power supply. Free shipping in the united states!"
