"Tested and working perfectly.

This unit has been serviced extensively by vintage synth expert Steve Jones in Sydney.

Cosmetically the unit exhibits typical crazing and rust spots throughout but it sounds like a million bucks!

I would be very wary of buying a Jupiter 8 that has not been serviced by a real professional who has documented the work carried out. Parts are extremely expensive and difficult to find.

Below is the work that was carried out on the unit from the work order July 2016

'Located and replaced failed Roland BA6632 VCA on lower module controller board. This was killing the VCF LFO on lower voices. Cleaned up gain selector switch. Replaced failed CA3046 transistor array which killed voice 4 VCO 2. Replaced perished rubber buffers on the pitch bender. Calibrated bender and mod controls. Repaired dry solder joint on volume board that was silencing the upper output. Cleaned up all of the intermittent switches and controls'"

With Tinkerbell and a bee printed on it, no less. The last one posted was back in 2011 with a blue front panel; no Tinkerbell or bee. Some details from the listing:

"The Pixie is a clone of the WASP that keeps the salient features of the WASP but replaces the keyboard circuitry with a MIDI interface to provide a more flexible product, giving the user access to a wide range of MIDI controllers including keyboards, seuqncers, laptop/PCs.

To help improve the stability of the design, the two 555-based VCOs and associated decoding ciruitry

have been replaced with a dual-digital oscillator built on the Mitsubishi M16C.

The Pixie expands the original WASP by adding the following extra functions:-
Additional waveshapes on both DCO's (Triangle, Sine and Modulated Square)
2nd WASP Filter
Low-Pass Filter
Ring Modulator
4-channel pre-FilterMixer
4-channel pre-Output Mixer."

"This is a fully loaded 120 Programs 8 Voice OB-Xa with aftermarket MIDI that currently does not turn on. I believe its power supply needs to be rebuilt, as it seems that the caps have dried up. I used this synth in my studio for years and it was fully working, but I moved recently and needed to store it as I didn't have room for it in my new space, and when I took it out of storage, it wouldn't turn on anymore. Sadly, at this time I don't have the time to commit to repairing it or the space for it, so I wanted to pass it on to someone who can give it more attention. Obviously due to the nature of this item its offered AS-IS."
