No guitars! If The Kinks had a synthesizer back then. ;)
You Really Got Me by The Kinks from the album Kinks (1964)
One of me my fathers favorite music groups.
Featured the Moog Prodigy Synthesizer (1979)
This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers."

"This is a Sequential Prophet-VS in excellent working condition, professionally serviced and tested by a former Sequential engineer in Japan.
Cosmetically rated "Good" due to minor touch-up spots visible on the surface.
These areas were professionally treated to prevent rust and ensure long-term durability.
Functionally, the unit performs excellently (except for aftertouch).
✅ Key Features:
LCD backlight replaced – bright and clear, with auto-off after 5 minutes of inactivity. Reactivates on touch.
Factory programs and waveforms fully restored – original Vector synthesis presets are ready to play.
Velocity-sensitive keyboard fully functional.
Aftertouch is currently non-functional due to a failed pressure sensor.
The part could not be sourced during service, so it was left as-is.
All other keyboard functions, including velocity and general playability, are working perfectly.
All sliders, buttons, and the joystick operate smoothly.
No audio issues, tuning is stable and accurate.
Internal memory is backed by a good battery – no patch loss."

Commodore Custom Built Circuit Bent Synth with Cynthcart and Screen
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this eBay listing

"Listing is for a custom built circuit bent commodore synth with cynthcart and screen. This custom build device was made around 2009 and has been used a few times but mostly stored. Honestly forgot I had it. If I recalled I think the purchase price was around 600 from the person who built it.
Some of the knobs are blank for future wiring mods. The ones I checked I listed on with tape. Octave changes, Volume knob, Filter on off switch, Filter cutoff. The cynthcart is the sound module on a card for the commodore sounds and can be played on the darker keys. The device works and was tested before listing however since this is a custom build some functionality may vary. It played sounds and sounds as I remember.
———
Listing is being sold AS IS so if there are any questions please just ask.
———
Functionality for the cynthcart I found is listed below.
———
cynthcart is a cartridge I developed for the Commodore 64 computer that turns it into a standalone analog synthesizer with MIDI support. The Commodore 64's SID is one of the most interesting 8-bit sound chips of all time, and I was unsatisfied with the available SID synthesizer software. Cynthcart supports the original Commodore 64 piano keyboard overlay (shown below), and MIDI interfaces by Datel, Passport, Sequential, and Kerberos. Cynthcart's key-command user interface allows it to be played and controlled without a monitor, making it especially suitable for live performance.
FEATURES:
● 30 preset sound patches
● Arpeggiator, portamento, vibrato, and tremolo effects
● Analog filter control and effects
● Control of attack, release, and other sound parameters
● MIDI support including pitch bend, patch changes, and controllers
● On-screen help
● Color visualizer display
● Mono stack, 3-voice mode, and 6-voice mode (with second SID)
● No latency
● SID hex editor for advanced users
● Ability to turn off video chip to reduce noise
● PAL and NTSC pitch tables with automatic selection
● Copies itself to RAM (cartridge can be removed after booting"
