"VERY old , box is worn but has not been used. I do not know if it works-I prefer not to open the box. The box is worn due to age."

I never really thought about it, but it kind of looks like a mini original Novation Bass Station with the blue on black accents.

Mattel Synsonics Bunduru Part 1

Published on Mar 5, 2020 Really Nice Audio

"I bought a mint condition Synsonics Drums for £30. This left me with me with the 'spare repair' one I bought a year ago which I thought would make a great project to see if it could be incorporated into a an acoustic drum kit!

I use a Time electronics Model 8000 Decade Resistor box to help set the correct value resistor to select the sensitivity of triggering Synsonics from the rim of the TOM."
