Yamaha CS15D Analogue Mono Synth SN 1060

"Closely related to the CS15, featuring the same twin oscillators, VCF chips and ADSR. Key difference is that the CS15D has the first voice assigned to preset sounds, and the second either presets or Manual. The manual setting of voice 2 combines with the presets on voice one can give some great effects. The case is also far more robust than the CS15, featuring wood end cheeks.
This one is in really nice condition. The end cheeks are pretty much perfect and there is very few imperfections in the front panel paintwork. There are some little lumps in the paint on the top surface (one picture tries to show these) but these really are minor and you only notice when looking up close.
It works fine in all modes and has only minor crackles when the Oscillator mixer slider, or volume control are operated while playing. All other controls are pretty much silent. I made some repairs to the power supply board and replaced a few of the signal line capacitors a few years ago and I have also swapped the Japanese transformer for a 230v one (professionally done, I'm an electronic engineer)."

"Overall, the synth is in excellent working condition. The front panel is very clean, with only minor blemishes. The side panels are nice and tidy with minor marks. The rear panel is also clean with only minor marks and blemishes.
All knobs, buttons and switches are present, original and function correctly.
All keys are clean and aligned and contact correctly.
The unit was tested today and the synth is working as it should be: 100% functional."

The First YAMAHA CS15 Monophonic Synthesizer - SN 1001 For Sale?
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"YAMAHA CS15 monophonic synthesizer SERIAL #1001 the 1st made CS15
Looks 9.00 of 10
Has some minor scratches but looks better than average.
Works 10 of 10
Everything works as it should do, overhauled before shipping to have long life and to keep original sounds.
Change all electrolytic capacitors and voltage regulators, some short life OpAmps, tramsistors and logis ICs with new ones,
and keys knobs, sliders, switches and jacks cleaning before shipping.
Voltage adjusted on buyer's request, to 100/120/220 or 240, need no extra cost.
Free shipping to anywhere on the earth as far as courier reaches..."
I did a quick search for "Yamaha CS15 SN" on the site to see what other serial numbers came up. They are all four digits and none were earlier than 1001. Unless there's a 1000 out there or they started with 0001, this is likely the first production CS15. Curious if it went to anyone special when it was first release or if it was simply shipped out with the first units.
