Description: ABOUT US: WE BUY, SELL & REPAIR VINTAGE SYNTHS & STUDIO GEAR PROFESSIONAL PERFECTIONISTS WITH 25+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE. We specialize in high quality, fully-serviced vintage analog synths, keyboards & other used gear. We're professional dealers & musicians too. We know our gear inside and out and treat our customers honestly & respectfully. We've been on eBay for many years. You can find our old feedback under user name minime123. Nowadays, we sell most items directly on our website, but occasionally use eBay too. Please mark us as a favorite seller. PRICES: eBay and Paypal fees are costly and are factored into our eBay prices. We are a reputable business and will not price match with other sellers selling a much lower quality product and service. You get what you pay for. ABOUT THIS ITEM: This item is also listed on our website, so please contact us before bidding to make sure it’s still available. This unit was professionally cleaned and serviced, but please read on.This unit came to us with a broken disk drive, due to a broken drive belt (which is extremely common in older disk drives). So we paid our tech for 2 hours of skilled synth tech time to service it. He replaced the belt, cleaned the head and felt pusher. Replaced the original battery and checked voltage, lubed slide pots and tested this unit. The modify button works well but the action is less clicky than the other buttons, which is something most sellers wouldnt notice or disclose if they did. One other thing we should point out is that we received this unit with a bunch of quick disks, but only two of them work, suggesting either the rest are bad (which is definitely possible since we see a high rate of ancient floppy disk failures) or its possible the drive is out of spec. Most people retrofit these with modern drive replacements that are much better than the originals. The reason we opted to repair the drive rather than replace it was so that someone who had a bunch of samples on quick disks but no longer had an s10 could load them into this unit. There's a chance this may not be possible if the disks are bad or if the drive is out of spec, so whoever buys this may want to go for the floppy drive emulator usb replacement option, which is cheap and which contains over 200 quick disks full of samples. If you have one of these you’d like properly restored, we can help! The shipping calculator here may be wrong. Buyer pays ACTUAL insured shipping costs.
