Nice find

Not sure £400 with shipping is worth it considering the amount of work it seems to require.

A cheeky bid and collection in person would be ideal. I could take the kids to chester zoo on the way

Make that £299.00, still not worth it?

Sure its a project, but it works and looks in good physical shape.

If I wanted a 3000 I'd jump on it, hell I paid £900.00 for mine.

it's either going to be a good buy an easy fix, or a complete waste of time and money as by the time you have sorted out the issues, you will probably of been just as good as copping a decent one. And even then you can't guarentee you are going to be able to fix all those problems... bit of a gamble.

Unit switches off when moved or when pads hit. That could be a **** to rectify.... lol

Actually we're both wrong, it's £345 with delivery. Still seems a risk unless you're really confident in repairing this kind of stuff

Well it looks ripe for some spares, breakeven on the deal at least.

Dont know why the hell someone would paint those panels and armrest red, that really sucks.

It is functional - the sequencer, sampler, MIDI ports and audio connections are all in 100% working order

So that makes it an S3000 and ASQ rolled into one. Definitely worth it.

The SCSI is most likely the fuse.

Unresponsive pads? That's an easy fix.

What I'd be worried about is the fact that it switches off/on (reboot, as he puts it) could be something down to the PSU. 240V into a 110 model anyone?

Well that didn't take long, sold within hours for £299.00.

Snooze and you lose...
