"It comes with with its original, black dust cover, music stand, power chord (3-prong for the Italian market) and a possibly original jack audio cable.

Some tiny dings on metal panel and wood panels, some tape residue on the dust cover that seems to go away with rubbing alcohol."

Teisco SX-400 // restored by VS&C

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

"The SX-400 is a solid 4-voice analog synth. The aftertouch and handwheel can trigger vibrato, cutoff and pitch at the same time, variable in speed and sensitivity. Available effects include an Ensemble (chorus) and a Portamento glide-effect. The sub & noise OSC and ensemble-switch are cool and make the SX-400 good for techno and acid too."

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

"Amazingly expressive instrument with a super warm 70's tone to it.

A Real analog Spring Reverb, and Flanger effects are built in.

Portamento /Glissando switchable and variable

Hold / Sustain switch

Various Touch effects (triggered via Aftertouch)

Expression Pedal input on the back

Auto Repeat on / off

It's in a truly amazing, museum-worthy condition !!

And fully functional.

The 'Transpose Up / Normal / Down' switch left to the keyboard has lost some of It's firmness, but functions perfectly nonetheless."

MYSTIC FREQUENCIES - TEISCO S60p Quick Demo - No Talking


video upload by Mystic Frequencies

"Just a quick demonstration of the Teisco S60p and most of its sounds,
The S60p is a truly great little synth for as simple as it is.
The music is completely made up, no shame for the bad notes lol. Enjoy!"

MYSTIC FREQUENCIES - VINTAGE SYNTH JAM - TEISCO S60P & YAMAHA RX5

video upload by Mystic Frequencies

"Made for the Vintage Synthesizers And Effects Facebook group members album. The idea was to make a song using only one vintage synth and one vintage drum machine, plus any effects were allowed as well as multitrack recording of the song so long as you only use the one vintage synth and drum machine. As the Admin of the group put it, "Back in the days when these synths were new or fairly new people didn't have but usually only one synth and had to push it to its limits to get the most from it" and as such put out the challenge among the group members. I decided to take it two steps further and do the ENTIRE song live without any multi tracking at all! All done in one continuous take including all 3 bad notes, using only a Monosynth and the song even includes a programmed by hand drum solo! No MIDI or controllers were connected, everything is done with only the one synth and drum machine. The Teisco S60P is a Preset only Monosynth with factory ARP aftertouch and has no external control such as MIDI / CV / GATE. The Yamaha RX5 is from 1985 and sounds so great when you put effort into programming it and its sounds. Here is a list of what the gear is setup and doing:

S60P - All melodies, lead lines and solos.
RX5 - All percussion, Bass and Guitar chords. (Factory Yamaha WRC02 Cartridge installed)
EFFECTS: Just a little reverb, nothing else."

KAWAI TEISCO S-100F | Analog Synthesizer 1979 | Sound Demo (no talking)


video upload by AnalogAudio1

"(c) 2023 by AnalogAudio1

The Kawai (Teisco) S-100F is a great little monophonic analog synth. It only has 1 VCO, but lowpass and highpass filters and some interesting modulation routings! Although it's limited, the basic sound is excellent. It reminds me a bit of the ARP 2600. The VCO has a huge range - very low and very high frequencies are possible. Built like a tank, best quality made in Japan, high quality hardware, easy to repair.

I played the Kawai S-100F with delay effects from Korg SDD-3000 (right channel only). On the left channel you can hear the synth dry."

Teisco 60F Vintage Analog Monophonic Synthesizer

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

Demo in the listing previously posted here.

"Teisco Synthesizer 60F / S-60F Vintage Analog Monophonic Synthesizer, which was manufactured in the early '80s under license from Arp Instruments in Japan.

This little monophonic synth has acquired quite a reputation in the synth community, for great value for the money, analog sound quality and reliability. I used it in the studio for years, and it has never let me down.

All the controls, sliders, knobs, pitch bend and keys are 100% working. The sliders need a little cleaning I guess, as they are all a little grippy, but nothing worrying.

Unit is in very nice vintage condition. Works on 220V. Power cable included."

Teisco 110F

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

"This classic ultra-rare analog synthesizer can transport you to the 70s with its retro electronic music atmosphere. The Teisco 110F is perfect for experimental and conventional/popular genres alike, producing unique sounds ranging from thick bass to sharp leads. This synthesizer is not only a collector's item for lovers of retro sounds but also a great investment for electronic music enthusiasts. It features a wide range of modulation and classic analog effects. It also includes a portamento effect, ring modulator, vibrato, and sample-and-hold for classic analog synthesizer effects and tricks.

Synth is fully functional and all the potentiometers and other components are original and have never been replaced. Additionally, there is some minor cosmetic damage to one of the wooden frames, which can be easily and inexpensively repaired."

via this auction

"A rather rare and cool monophonic synth that was originally sold under the Teisco branding. This example is in excellent overall condition and in 100% fully working order. It’s voltage rating is 240V so it will require a step down transformer if used in the USA. A wonderful synth that doesn’t come up for sale too often. Used by the likes of Depeche Mode and others."

Vintage Cretone Rhythm Maker



This one was spotted here and sent in via M Me.

"Cretone/Teisco Rhythm Maker, Very rare drum computer. This one has had a recap of all electrolytes, but the rhythms that come out are not correct and I think a transistor is no longer working properly, it starts to crack after a while. Amplifier section works well."

This is the first post to feature the Cretone brand and Rhythm Maker. If you know more about them, let us know!

Teisco Teischord C 60s japanese combo organ


video upload by Ohm.Studio

This appears to be the first demo of one featured on the site. You can find pics of one previously posted here.

"Quick demo of a serviced Teisco (also sold by Wem Watkins) Teischord C transistor organ.
Very nice looking and sounding. Very compact and lightweight.
A different taste than the italian ones (Farfisa Compact, Elka Panther, Gem Jumbo etc) or the Vox Continental. Quite a number of footages and timbres for such a small organ, ranging form 16" to 4". Vibrato with variable speed and 2 depth settings.
There further is a 'fullband' tab which is kind of all footage preset but not exactly and a "higher/forte" switch that lowers the volume of the 2 16" tabs to get more high end presence.

Recorded straight to the soundcard with no fx or treatment. This one is begging for a vintage tube amp in order to shine !"

Teisco S-100P

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

This one is for parts. Pic of the inside below.

"All great sounding preset analogue synths from the 70s, all with aftertouch control of a few parameters, randomly attached voicenames, and fantastic sounds.

This one has the additional quirk of an analogue Flanger & built-in Spring Reverb!

Had a few of these over the years, they sound lovely, probably a bit more aggressive than the Rolands, with a very vocal ARP-y filter.

Good condition, but no output. Just a hum, which doesn't respond to the keys or any of the controls except the Flanger switch. turn that on and you will hear a brief burst of sound. Bought this as is now, was told it was working until one day it didn't. Would suggest checking the power supply first, but seems likely a chips out somewhere along the line."
