"This is the original, one-of-kind prototype for an upgraded version of the Korg SR-120 analog drum machine. An engineer decided that the tempo dial on the SR-120 was too limited with regard to the beats per minute choices, so he designed this prototype, employing a dual-dial configuration, which gives the user infinitesimally more control over the BPM. While well-received by the Korg creative team, the suits decided that the production costs would be too high. It remains a singular gem.

The machine is contained in a super-protective case that makes it highly portable. You simply unlatch the top to expose the unit’s panel. It’s in superb condition and perfect working order."
