Prophet 5 Rev 1 Demo Video

Published on May 29, 2015

Little bit os synth trivia: that first patch from The Cars "Let's Go" was created by none other than John Bowen of John Bowen Synth design.

"This is the Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 1, Serial #122. It belonged to Greg Hawkes of The Cars, and was famously used on the Cars song "Let's Go!" as well as numerous other Cars songs and albums.

This synthesizer's electronics were expertly restored by Greg Montalbano of http://analogsynthservice.com. He is one of the few techs in the world with the knowledge to repair a Rev 1 Prophet 5. This particular Prophet had serious issues with its power supply, including numerous blown capacitors. Greg M. rebuilt the power supply, repaired a bad IC, and thoroughly calibrated and tuned the instrument. I oiled the wood, cleaned the keyboard, repaired a faulty keyboard contact, and carefully repaired a crack in the wood. Given her age, and the fact that she played countless stage shows and studio sessions, she's in wonderful shape and sounds fantastic."

via this auction

Note this one needs some work: "As I tested the unit in Test Mode after warming it up for few hours, there was slight constant noise and I noticed voice chips number 3 and 4 are not working properly. I also noticed the Square wave was not producing any sound, and also some kind of effect that seems like Portamento is constantly on and I couldn't figure out how to turn it off since the bender board panel has been removed.

So I'm selling this AS IS to be used with some servicing done. Besides the issues mentioned above, everything appears to be working fine to the best of my knowledge, all other buttons and sliders responding correctly as well as Saving Memory works fine."
