"Ace Tone / Ace Electronics Industries was the predecessor to Roland, and it is said that PS-1000 monosynth was designed by the founder of Roland almost simultaneously to when Roland released the popular SH-3A.

The unit appears to be working well to the best of my knowledge. An only issue I noticed is that 1C key is stiff and gets stuck when held down. The key produces sound so I guess its just a physical issue which could with some adjustment/servicing. I couldn't really figure out how to make the LFO Rate slider work, but all other buttons and switches and sliders working fine as I tested.

Cosmetically the unit is in nice condition for its age as you can see. There are some wear marks and scuffs here and there, but nothing major. I'm including plenty of pictures so you can see exactly how it looks."
