"This 1979 Oberheim OB-1A mono-synth's in great shape and has been fully restored receiving around 40 hours of bench time. This has been fully recapped, many chips replaced, key-bed disassembled, cleaned, re-bushed, leveled, calibrated for perfect operation, every control, switch, pot has been cleaned and lubed - not just sprayed... Sonically this synths a monster, easily has equal balls / umph compared to a MiniMoog. Fully operational in every way - presets work, which is a very unique feature for a mono synth. Pratt reed keybeds ready for rapid fire.
Condition wise this synth's in fantastic shape, its clean. There are very minor scratches in the paint in places, which is almost inevitable for any Oberheim of this era- The graphics are all there. Any marks will be visible in our photos. Overall we rate this a solid 8.5/10. Considering its from 1979 and survived the 1980's without a hole being drilled into it is a miracle.."
