"Jomox XBASE 888 Analog Drum Machine Synthesizer 2024 Serviced and Updated by Jurgen Michaelis at Jomox
Several months back I bought an 888 and sent it to Jurgen at Jomox to tune it up and essentially fortify it, fortunately Jurgen responded cause I believe he normally doesn't service the vintage and discontinued Jomox instruments, then after a busy few months I finally got the email that the 888 is ready, has been updated with every modern up to date hardware improvement available, all the presets restored back to factory etc and in Jurgen's words is good for the next decades. Also listed was a brand new internal battery, changing/updating the scanner firmware and new power supply. This is very likely the best Jomox XBASE 888 available currently.
Before I sent it to Jurgen, after having used mainly Elektron drum machines, I plugged the 888 in and was blown away by the boom, heaviness and power from the machine. There is no harder drum machine and kick drum in my opinion.
In my opinion the 888 is the coolest looking and sounding Jomox drum machine with the grey and red finish and its raw sounding samples etc.
I paid 1100 plus shipping for the XBASE 888 before shipping it to Jurgen, then paid to ship it to Jomox, then finally for the service of course and to ship it back, so asking price is very fair in the end."
