"Very good condition for it's age. Some minor chipping of finish under keybed and other small blemishes here and there. Sounds amazing as you can imagine. This is a MKI (indiciated by the lack of a screw in the VCA silkscreen graphics sectiion) which means it has the venerable IC35 filter known for being more aggressive than the later MKII filter (which is more liquidy). As it is 40 years old and hasn't been serviced in over 20, it is sold 100% functional but 'as-is'. I would recommend a recap and calibration at some point in the near-future to ensure another 20 years of trouble free use. The new mini is dope, but the build quality is flimsy by comparison."
