Roland JX-8P

And the little brother of the JX-10. I heard the JX-10 is basically two JX-8Ps in one. I've also heard that the sound slightly different. If you know, feel free to comment.

Roland JX-10

The buy it now is high without the PG-800, but according to the auction, the MSRP was $2500 when it came out. And that was with the value of the dollar in the 80s. Think about that. We really do live in good times when you think about it. When I was 16 I had to save for about a year and beg my dad to get my first synth, a Matrix-6 for $1100 or so. It was a stretch but I never regretted it and I still have it to this day, hence, matrix and matrixsynth. I never would have dreamed that one day we'd be able to get these expensive synths for so cheap. Now if we could only turn the clock back just a few more years : )

Roland TB-303 with Kenton Mod

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction.

Details:
"Awesome TB-303 with custom $600 rackmount case 2 of a kind. This 303 also comes outfitted with the kenton 5-socket kit controlling CV, GATE, FILTER, ACCENT and GLIDE, a must for true controll of this monster. This kit installed will cost you over $200 alone from Kenton UK. This thing is truly awesome and uses a convienient 3 prong power adapter (same as on any PC). The power is turned on and of via a lighted toggle switch located on the front of the case, there is also a toggle switch to choose between saw and square waves."
