The classic string machine. This one is a Hohner but it's identical to the more common Logan String Melody 2. This has had various modifications carried to it by Tony at OakleySound. There is a new dedicated output volume control on the front panel, as well as a vibrato modulation depth control. The latter alters the amount that the 6Hz modulation LFO affects the triple BBD circuitry, So you can change from a simple chorale effect, through to the classic Logan ensemble sound, all the way to a very obvious detuned effect. The power supply has been rebuilt and a vent added to reduce the internal temperature. A standard IEC power inlet has been added to the rear panel. Other mods have been done to reduce the amount of hiss. The unit comes with the rare original top cover. Cosmetically, the unit is in fair condition, It's very clean but there are some scuffs to the outer covering, and various dings in the original veneer. The eight level sliders crackle slightly when moved, and the sliders are rather stiff. All features work as they should. A superb sound.
