"I bought this from analogia.pl (i.e., Maciej Polak, check out his album 1977!) in 2022, serviced and converted to North American power. This synth is a little limited, but it sounds great and the portability can't be beat. It also has two features that (as far as I know) are unique to this model among early Korgs: the "bender" buttons and the "Phaser" waveform. As far as I can tell "Phaser" is a very nicely dialed-in pulse width modulation that sounds especially nice in the lower registers.
No major issues in testing, but two notes:
The output jack was a little intermittent when I started testing, but after working a 1/4" plug in and out of it the signal is solid. Guessing it was a little dirty and could eventually use a cleaning if you're handy.
The "Traveller" slider is a little stiff around the center of its travel. All audio passes great, so this is really a "feel" thing and something I've also noticed on some (but not all) other early Korgs.
In great cosmetic shape overall, but there are many little blemishes and signs of wear, which I tried my best to capture in the photos."
