"I spotted this while driving to my friend's house in SoCal. I was relieved to see that it was a Roland MIDI controller, not a synth, that was gutted to become a mailbox post."

Oberheim SEM Analog Synthesizer

"Cosmetics aside this is one of the best analog synths ever made, it DOES sound better than the new SEM. I've owned the new SEM and greatly prefer the old one over the new (the new is still really good though) but nothing quite the original. The original sounds more liquidy and warm, it has a buzzier bubblier sounding filter and the oscillators drift more."

samples at the auciton and http://ruskeys.net/

"Here description from the "A-Z of Analogue Synthesizers" book by Peter Forrest:
JUNOST'21: Polyphonic 48-note (F-E) strap-on velocity-sensitive synth with mod grip.
- Fairly unique, since most synths of this type are mainly monophonic.
- The mod grip has volume and pitch-bend wheels, and unison/chorus switch.

- Sliders on the main synth body for LFO depth, speed, delay, routing to filter or VCO. VCF and VCA each with AD envelope.
- Presets: three banks of four. Two-digit LED. Din connectors for mains and audio out. External PSU; very long lead. The keyboard itself weighs 6.5 kg."

Oberheim OB-1

via this auction

"The OB-1 is a simple and great monophonic synth from Oberheim based on the same synth architecture as the SEM. Released in 1978, it was the first truly programmable analog synth of it's time with 8 program memories. Classic and fat sounding bass & lead synth sounds. It has two analog oscillators and a very capable 2 or 4 pole switchable VCF filter that sounds great, and a good LFO that can control the VCA or VCF."
