"This 2600 is in excellent working order, when i purchased it there was normal issues due to age and there was a microphone plug installed between the keyboard and console so i had it repaired by Wes Taggert of analogics is geneva ohio... This 2600 has the unpotted modules that earlier 2600's had. Arp did not want other synthesizer manufacturers to steal their technology so they put an epoxy in the modules which meant to repair the synth the epoxy had to be removed which adds time to the repair and could even damage the module. Repairs made to this 2600 were all tantalum caps in the console and keyboard were replaced, if these old caps decide to blow it could do major damage to the synth making repairs very costly. The power supply was rebuilt, and all slides and switches were cleaned. There was a problem with the VCA triggering which was also repaired in the console. This 2600 was fully calibrated. The keyboard has all bushings replaced and was cleaned and works smooth, all the keys are aligned nicely. The added microphone cable was removed and all wiring set back to factory. With the power supply and tantalum caps being replaced and repaired you will not have to worry about something major blowing and causing expensive repairs in the future."
