"This is one of the tiny handfulof M5 analogue synthesizers made by Ken Macbeth.
It has been owned by me fromnew (as the serial number attests - Kenincorporated the initials of the original owners into the serial numbers).
It is in 'as new' condition andis fully working.
It has never ben gigged, andsince delivery has been kept at home in a smoke-free music room.
Ken incorporated threaded socketsinto the sides of the case but never provided any side panels. I’ve added custom-made side panels withintegral handles and finished in real black walnut veneer. If not wanted, the sides can be easilyremoved by unscrewing three bolts on either side. Otherwise, the synth is unmodified and absolutelyoriginal..."
Interesting regarding the serial numbers.

"This listing is for a vintage Roland RS-101 string synthesizer from the 1970s. From what I've read these are fairly uncommon because they were quickly replaced with the RS-202. This one has some minor wear around case and a few small flakes off the paint in corner, but otherwise it's in excellent condition and has been very well taken care of. All electronics are fully working. It was recently serviced, which included recapping the power supply, cleaning switches, key contacts etc so this synth should be reliable for quite some time. It has an beautiful, lush chorus and adjustable vibrato intensity that thickens up the tone perfectly. There isn't a huge selection of control options, but if you want a classic 70s string sound this is the keyboard for you..."
