"Mint condition FAT Freebass FB 383 MAM Mono Synth Roland Tb-303 Clone

This has a pure Analog signal path and has that original drippy 303 tone. It’s wonder from new and in superb condition / not much to say really it does what is says on the tin....

I’ve used it for lead sounds as well as 303 - it’s actually a good lead synth as well.

Roland TB-303 Bass Line Synthesizer + Carry Bag + PSU's

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"The TB-303 is in a really good shape. No damages on the plastic housing, clean battery compartment no scratchy pots. The only blemish is on the cover. There was a scratch that has been over painted. The TB-303 is equipped with a Sequentix Midibass midi interface. This modification is nondestructive and can be removed easily. Buyer will receive the original parts that has been removed to fit in the midi interface. I believe the Midibass is the best midi mod out there because it keeps the original functionality and feel of the TB-303 and just adds midi capability. The new owner will receive the original Roland carry bag and two original PSU's for EU and US voltage."
