"Up for sale, a beautiful Minimoog model D from 1974. This is a 40 year old machine in "like new" condition. Fully refurbished a few years ago. Very clean panel, labels, keys, knobs and switches. Amazing woodwork, looks much better in real life than in photos.

This is an old oscillator version, needs some time to warm up, tunes well, sounds big and fat. No scratchy pots, no background noise or hum.

The pitch bend wheel has no spring (does not return to centre position like on most contemporary synths) and sometimes it detunes a little when in the centre. I don't know if thats normal for every Mini (never played another one) or if this is a mechanical problem or electrical (potentiometer??)..."
