"This is a rare DDR analog phaser based on the classic TCA350Y Bucket Brigade Device.
The unit is in fully working order and in good cosmetic condition.
Original DIN sockets were replaced by more convenient jack ones."
"Nowdays Ondioline are becoming extremely rare even in France where they were hand-crafted during the 40's to 60's
This one is in VERY good condition AND is absolutely a real and magic pleasure to play- Nothing except original Ondes Martenot can provide such a feeling and so organic sounds !
Tuning is perfect (A440 on all 4 octave for each key)
This particular model has the great and very efficient improvement : Sub OSC for very loud sub harmonics if needed !
it has been fully serviced from September to December 2023 by very competent technician who spent around 50 hours to do the huge work needed for a very nice AND playable Ondioline
(this tech knows the Ondioline as he serviced in the past over 10 units)
He has done a very meticulous and respectful work (all electric wires have been changed, new components when necessary, PSU serviced, ground connection, all keyboard connectors cleaned for a good contact, and completely level keyboard...HUGE work !!)
the Knee level barrer is a new one, the string (useful for 'Castagnette' , Bongo ...) is the original one and of course efficient.
You might know there are differences between Ondiolines due to the technology evolution, hand made craft, components...) so please don't compare with an other one which will sound different
Have a look and listen to what this one is capable of
"The enclosure on this polysix is Brand New. I got it from Synthtronics and there isn’t a scratch on it. Since I installed the new enclosure I haven’t used it at all.
It also comes with a new KLM digital board from Synthtronics and the a Tubbutec ModyPoly mod. It originally had the classic battery leak issue but I have had zero problems with it since replacing the KLM board about 3 years ago. I also recently cleaned all of the keyboard contacts so every key triggers perfectly. It will ship in a softshell case."
"Most certainly a modern classic synth, this OB-12 is in amazing condition, considering it is 22 years old. Made in Italy by Viscount (who also made Vox organs in the 1960s)/Galanti family business, the synth was a "joint venture", legally using the Oberheim brand for marketing. The initial launch was a disaster, and the UK price tumbled from circa £2000 down to £499 through the 5-years of manufacture (2000-2005). Was it synth snobbery? (ah, I aint buying no Italian Oberheim...not a real one, dude.....).Was it bad sounding? Did it look naff? The years passed, then a few stalwart synth enthusiasts realised that the OB-12 was actually years ahead of its time. It actually IS reliable (apart from the display screen, but replacements are available). It actually can sound HUGE, and has many features that have to be highlighted. KKGB have also bothered to print off the 160-page manual; which IS very good and informative
