"Oberheim OBXa made in 1981. Where to start? First she's had her keybed restored with super low action. It almost feels like you're playing a toy, I'm dead serious. Is just that light of a touch now. No more "click click." Next I've added midi to her from electrongate.com which is the business of Paul White who worked at Oberheim all those years. The midi is the exact replica of the factory midi from the early days of Oberheim. Next I've added the MRam card which eliminates the need for a battery PLUS you can store an unlimited amount of programs if you can find it LoL. Of course all these upgrades are not permanent so you can go back to original if you wanted too. Lastly she got some brand new sides, awesome black walnut. Just look at that wood grain! The originals are not included."
