"Up for grabs is a beautiful Prophet 5 Rev 3.3 with factory MIDI from the inventor himself!We acquired this amazing Prophet by chance while working out of a studio in Southern California right before the pandemic. It was a backup unit to their Rev 2 that had seen more action moving/Tetris/inventory than time in use. In order to get it home we purchase a brand new top of the line encore ATA flight case with wheels ($700+ road case) which is included in the sale as well. The case has flown a total of 3 times: once home, then back and forth to a remote session as it was a ‘must have’ per the clients request. It is in excellent condition. The case is currently in climate controlled storage warehouse, pictures will be up soon.
The synth’s cabinet shows typical wear for a Prophet 5 but is structurally sound. The wood cabinet gets a linseed oil treatment every 3 months as part of our routine studio upkeep. If you have wood cabinet equipment I highly recommend linseed oil if you want to preserve the quality of wood.
Routine maintenance for upkeep as follows:
-Power supply electrolytic caps updated.
-Keybed serviced with new bushings and J wire assembly cleaned and fine tuned.
-Battery replacement to ensure longevity.
We are listing this in Very Good condition because of the minor cosmetic imperfections. Otherwise this Prophet is in Mint condition."
