"Vintage ARP AXXE 2313 analog synthesizer. MOOG type FILTER. recent restoration. LOW SERIAL NUMBER. Item has brand new key-bushings and the contacts have been cleaned and aligned. All of the slide pots have been removed, disassembled, cleaned and reassembled. This item has been completely gone through. This item has been tuned and calibrated to factory spec. Most of the color slider tops are reproduction. Cosmetic condition is very good overall for a vintage item. Item has a few scratches and a few chips and is missing some of the silk screened image on the face. One of the wooden side caps looks to have had a crack repaired in the past. The side caps have been cleaned and oiled (not refinished.) They have a some signs of wear but over all look pretty good. This item has some character, and it sound amazing. See pictures.

This is a great sounding analog keyboard. Short warm up. Starts right up and plays great.

ABOUT THE "MOOG" type FILTER: This is an earlier model without the 4075 filter-module mounted on-top of the board. The parts are slightly different and are placed directly onto the main pcb board on this model. Everyone commonly calls these models the "moog filter" models. It really does sound a lot more like a moog. More creamy and a lot fuller and more brassy sounding. I believe that most of the 2313 models probably wouldn't have had this feature, but this one is an extremely low serial number at #0249. I actually have another axxe 2323 orange face that i restored at the same time and have had others in the past. That is where my information on comparison of the filter sound is coming from."
