The Model D in the hands of Geddy Lee has delivered legendary basses, melodic leads, and rich analog tones that are iconic and indicative of the Minimoog’s creative influence on musicians. Musicians and Rush fans can now tap into a piece of music history that was instrumental in shaping the band's signature sound.
Hand-signed by Geddy Lee and individually numbered, each Geddy Lee Minimoog Model D is a collector’s item to be cherished for decades to come.
"It’s a thrill to see the Minimoog Model D in that stunning red, so representative of one of the most fertile periods in Rush’s creative history.” —Geddy Lee
ICONIC SOUND QUALITY
Originally released in 1970, Minimoog Model D was the world’s first portable synthesizer and served as the archetype for all electronic keyboards that followed.
It was quickly embraced by a diverse roster of performers, including Rush frontman Geddy Lee who enraptured generations with his and the band's unique style of prog rock.
CLASSIC ELECTRONICS WITH MODERN TOUCHES
In addition to Geddy’s signature red finish, this model of the Minimoog offers a hot-rodded VCA circuit, dedicated LFO controls, top panel CV jacks, spring loaded pitch wheel and MIDI integration.
A UNIQUE COLLECTOR’S ITEM
For musicians and collectors seeking both inspiration and history, the Geddy Lee Minimoog Model D combines the legendary analog sound of Moog instruments with a distinctive aesthetic that honors Rush’s iconic legacy. More than a collector’s piece, this powerful synth—celebrated for its playability and unique sonic character—features modern enhancements for today’s music creators.



Yet, even this would not convince me to buy one. Moog does not have the oomph to lift itself to the orbit of my GAS.
