"PPG 1002 extremely rare vintage analog synth + cv / gate + audio in (serviced)

Up for sale is an (1) extremely rare PPG 1002 synthesizer, build around 1976. Approx. 20-25 units are been made and probably not more than 10 are still alive, so it's a unique chance to buy one. The first owner was PPG employee Lutz Vogelsang, we can prove that. He sold it to a friend and we are the third owner. Lutz installed a useful external audio input mod with a low/high gain switch on the front panel. You can overdrive the filter beautifully now and when you connect the 'output II' into the ext. audio input you can create an additional resonance to the sound.

We serviced the synth and installed a v-trig / osc / filter input to control it with another device like a sequencer. The sawtooth oscillators, snappy filter and weird modulation possibilities makes this a monstersynth. It sounds amazing!!

Cosmetically the synth is in near mint condition with only some minor signs of use. Please check all the detail photos for a good overall impression.

The service report is part of the sale. It is a 220v version with European plug installed. There is no serial number on the synth."
