"This Prodigy has never been gigged and is in near mint condition!

It has a very low serial number of 1702 and includes a bit of history-its mod work was done by the trusted and iconic Lipham Music Co in Gainsville FL where a young Tom Petty worked in the late 1960s after taking lessons there from Don Felder, one of the original Eagles.
Lipham regulars included The Allman Brothers, Blackfoot, Iron Butterfly, Tony Joe White and The Royal Guardsmen and Bo Diddley.

It recently had $400 worth of work done by Music Technology in Springfield VA including replacement of caps, LED, regulator, resistors, set volts per octave and tuned oscillators and has not been used since. The original mod cables are included in the price. They are clearly marked and there is a schematic diagram on the back of the synth.
There is a tiny chip in one of the keys (see photo) other wise it is in beautiful original condition.

The Prodigy is an incredible machine with a totally gorgeous classic Moog sound and very heavy bass capabilities. The filter on it is the most organic of all the vintage Moogs, and is the go to for a vintage Moog short of a Model D. With two oscillators and *THE* Moog filter, this little synth stands tall among the rest of the classics."
