Ultra Rare VINTAGE SUZUKI EB-255 Bass Master Synthesizer MIJ Japanese Antique
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This extremely rare item is in perfect working order. The four square knobs are octave switchers, and the others seem to effect timbre, frequency and resolution. The knob on the far left has a different top slider, so I dont know if it is missing a cap, or if it is designed that way. It functions fine. These things are just so rare that I cant even find another photo to compare it to. There was an EB 250 for sale a few years back, but that was a lower end model version of this one.
Signal is mono via headphones. Has built in cable and housed in its own carrying case. Optional voltage converter will be included for free, along with your regional adapter plug, if necessary. All keys and functions tested and found to be fully functional."
Anyone know more about these? Curious if it's more organ than synth in tone.

E-Mu Launchpad Retro MIDI Controller - iPad Compatible?
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Totally cool, totally retro. This midi controller would look amazing next to your iPad, laptop, or DJ setup. (Yes, iPad: no midi drivers needed, just the Apple camera connection kit plus the included MIDI-USB cable!)
The EMU launch pad midi controller was designed to work with the popular sound modules EMU made in the late 90's but it takes on a whole new image here in the 21st century. It works with any midi device. You can go old school and connect the Launchpad inline between your keyboard and the rest of your setup (it merges its MIDI In into its Out). Or you can connect it directly to you laptop or iPad/iPhone with the included MIDI-USB cable. (This item does not make any sound on it's own.)
Works with any iOS7 devises, with an added Apple connector kit ,to control any core-midi app.
It gives you a good number of MIDI control: 5 sliders, 1 button, 1 footswitch input, and 1 proportional pedal input (voltage or resistance). You also get a pitch wheel, increment/decrement buttons to switch songs, banks, and programs , a MIDI Beat Clock feature, 13 transposable velocity-sensitive "drum pads" that is also a one octave keyboard, and a bank of 6 buttons that can be in either "transport mode" (sending MMC/Sequencer Control SysEx) or "trigger mode" (locking on notes to play background pads or rhythms, assignable to any note and channel).
This piece of kit is pretty rare and no one even realizes how great it is! Check out those totally retro olde-computer keyboard style "drum pads." How great are they!! And velocity sensitive!
Includes MID-USB cable and power supply.
Built like a tank in the U.S.A!
Did I mention those great drum pads?? :)"

Rare Casio VL-10 Keyboard Synthesizer VL-Tone
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The smallest keyboard instrument ever made! 29 keys (buttons), 3 different sounds, and 10 drum rhythms. Plus, it's a calculator!
The Casio VL-10 VL-Tone synthesizer is one of those bizarre frankensynths of the 80′s, part calculator, part synthesizer, part drum machine. This keyboard is one of the smallest if not the smallest fully working synthesizers every created.
This particular unit is in perfect working condition. There is a little dent in the metal on the underside, but otherwise it's in great shape. (Yes, metal. Not plastic like the VL-1.)
There is an excellent video of the VL-10 here:

Rare Multivox MX-202 String And Brass Synthesizer
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

Not the best pics, but you don't see these often.
"This is one of the most desirable string and brass synths out there. When you hear how lush it sounds you will know why. The ensemble buttons really give the keyboard extra depth that others in the same field do not have.
Everything works great on this particular model. All sliders and buttons function as they should. As you can see the keys have yellowed nicely, which is very common with the 202's. The tolex on the case is a bit scraped up, but overall in excellent condition considering the age."

"Moog Liberation – vintage analog synthesizer, complete, functionally "great to excellent"
The Liberation is virtually identical to the Moog Prodigy, and includes all the same waveforms and functions PLUS a 44 note keyboard, ring mod, polyphonic mode, noise, and auto-triggering S&H. The oscillator synch works fine and the Moog filter sounds great. The modulation switches and wheels on the neck work for volume, filter, glide, etc. The pressure sensor does not work, therefore the wheel for pressure sensitivity doesn’t do anything; turning on the pressure sensor simply turns on the selected function 100%, which is musically useful so not a problem. This is still completely usable, you just can’t get the “expressiveness”, and I think it’s an easy fix. Other than this I would describe it as functionally excellent with all keys playing in tune and triggering as they should.
This is a complete setup, including the power supply interface module and the extra-long cable. Ready to play and needs nothing.
The neck was purposely designed with the correct offset for it to fit in almost any keyboard stand, so aside from playing it as a keytar it’s also an easy way to add a 44 note CV/trigger keyboard to your rig!
Cosmetically it’s very nice but vintage; the white finish has crazing, small chips, and imperfections as shown in the photos, but overall this Liberation shows very nice for a vintage keytar. No cracks, no damage, the keys are all perfectly straight, smooth and perfectly functioning. No signs of it ever being dropped, abused, no key misalignment, etc. The sliders and knobs all move smoothly and work fine, but they could use a cleaning because when you look inside each slider you can see some some dirt and debris. This doesn’t affect the function at all, but it’s something I would do if I were keeping it.
This one is interesting and different from most other Liberations that I’ve seen because it has the following FACTORY installed differences: a pitch bend wheel instead of a ribbon controller (I prefer the wheel over a ribbon); an extra ON/OFF switch on the neck to for sending CV/trigger to an external synthesizer (this is slick if you’re using this to control other gear on stage); there are two 1/4'’ inputs on side of the synth. These outputs are not standard and I don’t see them on most Liberations on the internet, but I believe they are a factory mod. I believe they’re inputs to modulate volume and filter using a foot pedal controller. I wasn’t able to fully test them because I don’t have the correct pedals – probably needs either a variable resistance pedal, or possibly a variable voltage pedal (like a Moog 1120 pedal). An ordinary on/off pedal does cause changes – it worked to switch the volume on/off from one of the ports, so I believe that input controls the volume and the other one controls the filter."
