Yamaha CS01

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction.

Details:
"This is a Yamaha CS01 Analog Synth. This is a monophonic synth(only 1 note at a time). These were only manufactured from 1982-1984.
This was the last analog synth Yamaha synth made according to most websites before moving to all digital with the DX-7. A very cool little synth with lots of sliders to play with. It has pitch bend and modulation wheels, breath control(if you can find one of those rare breath controllers). There are 5 waves to choose from as well as resonance. Everything works great and it's totally fun to play with. This may look like a toy, but it's got a lot of neat sounds to work with. By the way there is no memory to store sounds, so you have to move sliders to change the sounds, but it is easy to make up new sounds.It can use a DC9-12 power adapter with center pin postive, but it does not come with one, even though i tested to make sure it works. It also has a 1/4 inch headphone jack and a 1/4 output jack on the right side."
