$85 World Ship Vintage Analog ROLAND SH-1000 Synth Synthesizer mono lead bass

Vintage 1973 ROLAND SH-1000 Analog synth! $85 worldwide shipping!! As you can see in the photos, this Vintage Roland sh1000 is in excellent, perfect functional condition. All keys, switches, sliders, and controls work perfectly, and the synth is in top form. It has just been fully serviced and is ready for another 40 years of awesomeness. The synth is in fair cosmetic condition, with ample exterior wear appropriate for its age and awesomeness. The SH1000 is a rare and hugely underrated synth, the first preset analog ever, and it's loaded with that huge roland filter sound in a small box. The synth sounds (of course) INCREDIBLE! All of those squishy, squelchy, swirly analog leads and fat, beefy, ms20 style bass tones are on tap, as well as that classic moog whistle. Truly, this thing is a bass monster. As huge as it gets. It might look small, but this thing destroysCheck out the video! Love it! Enjoy! From vintage synth explorer: Roland SH-1000 The SH-1000, introduced in 1973, was the first instrument produced by Roland, and probably one of the first compact affordable keyboard synthesizers in all of Japan. It was designed to complement a home organ. Above its keyboard is a wooden sheet music stand. Organ-style colored preset selector tabs are located below the keyboard. All the extra parameter controls are located to the left of the keyboard.The SH-1000 is a monophonic analog synth with a single oscillator feeding a lowpass filter, an ADSR envelope, and two LFOs. It features 10 Preset sounds, but they are pretty weak. Fortunately you can create your own sounds for some really great mono-synth bass, lead, percussion and FX sounds. Basic square, ramp and pulse-width waveforms are available from the oscillator and the LFOs have sine, square and sample+hold. It has a terrific 'Growl' and 'Wow' effect for a pretty scary analog sound. It also features white noise, pink noise, portamento, octave transposition and a Random Note Generator. Although there is no user memory, unique sounds can still be quickly recreated or discovered thanks to its simple interface.It's a dinosaur! But it's also a classic piece of Roland history. It has been used by Vangelis, Human League, Blondie, The Band, and Jethro Tull. A little later in 1973 the SH-2000 was released with more Preset sounds (up to 30) but far less flexibility, controls and features. This may have been because the SH-1000 was a little confusing to its target demographic at the time. But today's synthesists will love the unique sound and nostalgia of Japan's first compact synthesizer!
