"Used by thousands of musicians over many decades it is still one of the most sought after vintage synths. This one is in great condition, especially for it's age. as you can see from the photos. Aside from a few minor nicks in the wood it's cosmetic condition is excellent. The wood is also quite rare - it's known s a "blonde Mini Moog" because it has a lighter type of wood than the darker walnut used on most of them. The blondes are even more collectible and valuable due to their rarity.

Electronically, everything works 100%. It is serial #8166, which indicates it has the later oscillators, which were more stable and stayed in tune better than the earlier ones. That said, it is an analog synth which requires tuning (that's just the nature of the beast) ,so the tuning is never as precise as a modern digital one which is exact and doesn't even require tuning."
