"The Mini was professionally serviced a few months ago including re-capping of the power supply and cards, new keyboard bushings, and tuning and scaling.
This Mini is the 325th one ever built.
It sounds amazing, and plays great.
As with all of the first few hundred made, it has the original metal face plates and clear modulation and pitch wheels.
This Mini has served me faithfully for years.
There are a few useful modifications:
-The oscillator card has been replaced with the more stable version(all the other cards are the original R.A. Moog cards)
-The S-Trig input has been replaced with a 1/4" input that accepts standard Gate/Trigger for easier interface with external controllers
-There is a two-way switch that shifts the CV control of the oscillators from the keyboard to the external CV Input
There is also the remnants of one mod that was probably installed before the newer Oscillator board was installed.
You can see it on the side where the two holes that are labeled 'High' and 'Low' are."
