"Oberheim OB-8 in beautiful cosmetic condition, fully serviced, calibrated and fully functional. One of the nicest OB-8s in the market at the moment. The front panel is very clean with very minor scratches. Please refer to the posted pictures. I zoomed in as much as possible to highlight those scratches. These scratches are less visible on the actual unit. The original wooden end cheeks are also very clean as can be seen in the posted picture.

This OB-8 has is serviced by one of the best techs in Alberta, Canada as of December 2020. Here is the list of the works done on this OB-8:

• All capacitors and bridge
rectifiers are replaced by high quality ones from Synthchaser's “Power Supply Capacitor & Rebuild” kit.
• All capacitors and fixed resistors are replaced with high quality ones from Synthchaser's “Voice Board Ultimate Service” kit.
