"Background: This Synthi was inherited after a death in the family and has been taking up storage space untouched for decades. I am looking for someone to take it off my hands and it would be a good find for a collector or studio looking for a classic and historic synthesiser (The EMS synth used by Eno on "Low" and "Heroes" was a Synthi AKS, the same model as used by Pink Floyd ("On The Run" etc.) and Alan Parsons Project ("I Robot")). I am not a musician so my knowledge of specifics and technical details is very limited outside of what I have been told by assessing experts but I am more than happy to respond to any questions or queries as best I can!

Rundown of condition:
In working condition (assessed by experts) All original parts and cords – no modifications or tampering.
The electronics are all working.
Top side of case housing keyboard is missing - was missing when originally imported from England in the 970's.
Original manual and assorted documents (Playing guides and tabs/patches).
Original pins (count: 2 Red, 3 Green and 14 White).
Keyboard seems to currently not be in working condition (I couldn’t get it going but my knowledge is limited) but is in very restorable condition (eg: [link])."
