Complete professional service completed in February 2018 by US Arp specialist. Checked over by our resident synth expert - it is in superb working order. Ready for the next 45 years of spectacular sound and music creation.
CONDITION: The front panel, controls and keyboard are all superb and undoubtedly in exceptional original condition for a 2600 of this age. The keys of the 3620 keyboard are showing some age in terms of fine scratches and scuffs but overall this is also is excellent condition. The tolex has some wear and scuffs - mostly on the edges - but nothing serious. Overall this is an outstanding example of an exceptional instrument - the best we've seen.

Extensively tested by our resident synth expert - all features and functions are working as they should (as with much vintage gear some crackle is possible from sliders especially if the unit has not been used for while, but this should clear with use)."
