Sold together with the Synthi AKS Poly MIDI-CV interface, allowing MIDI control while preserving the originality of the instrument.
The synthesizer is in very good cosmetic condition for its age and has been carefully stored throughout my ownership. Please refer to the photographs for its overall condition.

This is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after vintage synthesizers ever produced.
I have owned this Synthi for approximately 25 years and am very sad to part with it. It is one of the finest synthesizers ever made—innovative, expressive, and full of character. A true recording classic that has earned its legendary reputation.
