"Highly sought-after and rare analogue performance synth with great sounding built-in flanger and spring reverb. The real strength of this synth is how expressive you can be due to the assignable aftertouch.

The S100P is often likened to the Arp Pro Soloist made famous by Tony Banks of Genesis fame, in fact the S100P aftertouch system was manufactured under license from ARP. The aftertouch can be routed to several destinations simultaneously, including pitch bend up/down, filter, vibrato amount and "growl" and the sensitivity is adjustable to suit your playing style.

This example is in perfect working order and it has just been professionally serviced by James Walker of Synth Repair Services so you can be confident that everything works perfectly. As part of the service James has fitted a brand new all-important aftertouch sensor as these tend to harden with age. The new one means you wont have to press hard to activate it.

Cosmetically the synth is in very nice condition for its age with just a few light scratches and some peeling of the veneer on the wooden end panels..."
