"This is an all original 1973 Moog Minimoog (down to 2 pin power cord) in full working condition. All pots, keys and controls work perfectly - delicious Saturn V analog technology. I have carefully photographed any blemishes - the most significant being the all rock 'n roll cigarette burn by the first key.

This would be a great collectible standalone, but as you can see I am the third owner, and the first was Kerry Livgren of America's contribution to progressive rock, "Kansas". Listen to the early albums and there this is ... I think collectors will consider the letter (written to the musician who sold it to me) in combination with the markings and serial number on the instrument as solid provenance. I was never a keyboard guy and this just deserves a better home than I'm giving such a great piece of musical history.

It comes with the same pro flight case it was shipped to me in ... happy to discuss shipping details with winning bidder before payment, and can work out an in person handover if you are in the Philly region. Have just used ebay's shipping engine as a baseline with uninsured UPS ground. Clearly though, if it is shipped, I can't warrant the functionality afterwards - but these things were well built back then."
