"These were sold in kit for in 1978 in the Practical electronics magazine. Boards were made by CLEF electronics who made various kit synths
Being sold as a restoration project as there are some parts missing and it does not function correctly. From what i can see the only parts missing are the 2 wooden end pieces that fill the gaps at the ends of the keys, a couple of slider caps, slider shaft missing, 1 x i.c on the chorus board is corroded and pins broke when i tried to remove from the socket. Other than that it looks complete
The mains cable wants replacing as it has got very worn, for safety this must be changed. I have powered on and the power light comes on, connected to an amp and the keys trigger some sounds but all a bit hit and miss on triggering. This will be down to key contacts being dirty i think.
nice little project as i am sure all of the components are standard and easily available now"
