via the seller: "I believe in being upfront about the condition of gear so..... Let's start with the bad stuff: This Arp 2600 has several issues. Do not consider this as new showroom condition. The left speaker does not work. The tolex covering the case was removed and the wood case has been painted black The front of the wood case was modified to hold a (vintage) Mu-Tron envelope filter. The filter has been disconnected, there are no electrical issues from it having been installed and removed. I will include the filter, I have no idea if it works. The back of the wood case is missing (see photos). Numerous slider shafts are broken but the sliders still work. Missing slider caps. Some of the faders are scratchy Some of the screws are replacements on the front panel. The power connector has been replaced. Most of the electrolytic and tantalum capacitors have been replaced in the VCA, EG and outputs sections as well as the power supply. (this is actually a good thing). The good stuff: All 3 oscillators work and sound great. The filter works and sounds great. Envelopes work. The VCA has been replaced with an exact replica. It now functions perfectly. S+H, noise, slew, reverb all work. It really does sound great. No keyboard is included. This arp appears pretty rough but it sounds great. Please note all the cosmetic issues. Look closely at the photos. Ask questions. No returns accepted, so if you have concerns or certain requirements ask before bidding. Buying this arp or placing a bid means you accept any and all of its imperfections and awesomeness."
