1984 Casio PT-7 - Analog Rhythm Machine with Digital Keyboard w/ Original Box

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"The extremely rare Casio PT-7. A very unique and beautiful design by Casio.

It has an analog rhythm machine and a digital keyboard!

This particular PT-7 is in excellent cosmetic condition, but the keyboard has some issues. The lowest notes on the keyboard do not function, and it is stuck on one sound (piano, I believe). However, the rhythm machine portion of this PT-7 works perfectly. Includes original box."
