"Hello . I have a Fairlight Series iii that belonged to my husband who was a film composer . I am now looking to sell this Fairlight and would be very appreciative for some advice on what kind of price I should be looking for . It has the original keyboard and user manuals . “A very rare chance to purchase an this music industry Fairlight series 3 for restoration. Only ever 300 made it’s basically part of synth/sampler history, they don’t come up for sale very often! Fairlights were used by Kate Bush, Art of noise, Pet shop boys, and were also used on the sound track of ‘Terminator movie’ try and find another for sale! This is a truly an iconic and unique instrument complete with flight cases and instruction manuals (A better more practical up to date monitor can be purchased online specifically for this rare instrument)..."
Side note according to Google AI: "The Fairlight Series III did not use a light pen; it replaced the older light-pen input with a graphics tablet and stylus for user interaction with the screen's graphics, partly due to user complaints about arm fatigue from holding a light pen."
The stuff dreams are made of.
