Description
Yamaha CS-5 Analog Synth -Just serviced & beautiful cosmetic condition -see picsThis would represent a fine investment but is also an everyday useable instrument for anyone looking to own a hard-core and powerful vintage analogue synth.
The CS-5 is my favourite in the black CS series. (its the best built of the black CS series by far --- bottom of synth is black steel (like MS-20) rather than cheaper plywood bottoms on CS-10,15, 30--the plywood choice is a design flaw and ruined what could have much more ore attractive CS models.)Something about the CS-5 one voice VCO sound is special too-its much fatter than the VCO circuits of CS10/15/30.
PS-the CS-5 model was the synth used by Apex Twin in the early phase of his career (Selected Ambient Works II) and also early Depeche Mode.
Coupled with a modern day CV sequencer (I recommend the new cheap Korg SQ1) this professional grade analogue synthesizer is as relevant today as any contemporary analogue synthlinks of interestDisclaimer:-This is a 100V Japan Model --A 100V stepdown transformer must be used which will be supplied by me free of charge with this synth.AU $99 airmail shipping to Australia EMS tracked 4-5 days with online tracking ( 9.5kg properly packaged)
