via the seller: "Features: 4012 "ladder" 4-pole filter; duo-phonic 3620 keyboard; matching keyboard/synth SE#s 0153; original cables, manual, service manual and patch book.

Condition: Unmolested, totally stock and original; panels, keyboard and over-all cosmetics in beautiful condition; a few modest tolex blemishes; oscillator 2 requires calibration; three slider knobs broken off (see photos - sliders fully functional, replacements readily available).
Provenance: Original owner, purchased new in spring 1976 from Patrick Gleeson, Different Fur Trading Co., San Francisco.

Highlights: This 2601 v1.0 is quite rare - it is equipped with the Moog style "fat" 4-pole filter with extended frequency range (which Moog forced ARP to discontinue), has superior jacks and sliders, and was manufactured mid-1976 at the peak of the quality curve for the 2600s. I have owned and treasured this synth for 39 years. If you are looking for a immaculate, single owner, best-in-class example of a ARP 2600, this is it."
