"This is a fine example of the incredibly rare Swiss/Italian design ZW Bassmachine, a true analog monophonic synth with two oscillators and ten preset sounds.

The instrument has a two-octave full sized keyboard, wood cabinet and end cheeks, octave switch, tune, envelope controls and second oscillator switch with Detune.

The sounds vary from similar to a Roland TB303 Bassline to more like an EDP Wasp or a Moog Rogue. The filter design is a Moog-style transistor ladder, clearly identifiable on the circuit board - probably not licensed :-)"
