Olive Green Michael Angelo Akai MPC4000

via this Reverb listing
No mention of what the Michael Angelo reference is to. Guessing it's a custom skin. Michelangelo is supposed to be one word if it's a reference to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, though. If anyone knows, feel free to comment. I'm not finding anything online. Just thought it was an interesting color and an interesting skin to capture in the archives.

Custom White Roland Juno-106 61-Key Programmable Polyphonic Synthesizer
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this Reverb listing
"Custom Roland Juno 106 serviced, painted, and modded by the synth spa in late 2017. This Juno 106 is super clean, works perfect perfectly, and is one of a kind. The color is cream and all the graphics, program lights, and mod wheel are all custom. Synth spa also socketed the main processor so it’s easily removed if you should ever decide to do the kiwi. The sides are Custom too but kind of wish I would’ve gone with a matte/satin finish because they’re a little overly glossy(see pictures,) but still nice. This synth is in great shape and playsas it should. If you’re familiar with this synthesizer, it’s the voice chips that can go bad but these were fully restored when this synth was customized and should continue to stay strong for a long time."

🔥Sequential Circuits Pro-One (with MIDI)🎹 & Custom Knobs
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
video upload by Ephraim Nowak
via this Reverb listing
"Original SCI Pro-One with MTG Turbo MIDI kit installed!
Cosmetically, it's seen better days, but sonically - it works. Has been stored for two years and some key contacts needed playing after that time. It's time for a new home where it's appreciated!
The instrument was serviced in 2023 by the legendary Greg Montalbano of Analog Synth Service in Oakland.
Cleaned, tuned & scaled. Assessment: MTG MIDI unit works, but the CV option was incorrectly soldered, and the DAC for the optional CVs doesn't work. Upgraded fixed power cord to removable IEC power socket"

Battlescarred Badass Roland SH-101
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this Reverb listing
Pics of the inside below.
She ain’t gonna win any beauty contests, but she can kick your “I buy mint only” friends SH101’s butt any day.
Electronically perfect, cosmetically weird SH. It’s my fault…it was a UV-greened olive to brown gradient mess when I got it and I tried whitening the case and left it under UV lamps too long. You can see the original color on the battery door. While my process works wonders for keys and buttons, not so much for gray cases I guess. Oh well.
Despite the now quirky camo exterior, the electronics, rear case and keys are perfect. Power button is solid, no amount of wiggling and wobbling impacts anything. All functions were checked against another SH that I own (I’ve owned 4 and know them inside and out) and everything is spot on. All faders lubed with Deoxit F5, no crackles or jumps. There’s none of the dreaded battery leakage or other liquid damage present. It’s very clean, and as you’d expect sounds massive.
Properly matched PSU included."
