via the seller: "The 3rd ever production Linndrum for sale here, I've actually spoken to Roger Linn about this and he confirmed it for me. Pick up a proper collectors item.

Works great but takes a long time to get warmed up, which is not unusual for such an old instrument. If you wanted you could get the transformer serviced so that it will start up faster, something I've done with my Prophet 5. I just tried it out and after the warm up it worked and sounded brilliant. A shame to sell it really.

I only ever use it for making patterns with and have never used or tested it's song sequencer mode. Never had any issues with the machine though apart from the long warm up time.

The right output of the stereo output is at a bit loose, as you can see from the picture. I tried moving it around to see if any noise or loose connections were occurring but there was nothing. Works totally fine.

When I bought it it did not have the screws fixing the hinged top section to the bottom section. This is not a problem unless you plan on putting the drum machine upside down, and is actually quite handy as there internal parameters that are adjustable (like Kick tune).

Collection from London E8 is preferred as this is a vintage item and might not do too well in the post. Saying that if postage is required I can do it but it will not be cheap as item is heavy. It will be well packed though, but will take longer than the 3 working days advertised."
