Estimated price for orientation: 1 550 $
Category: Synthesizers
Class:
Description Type: Modular Synthesizer Model: EASEL Brand: Buchla Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
This auction is for my very rare Buchla Easel synthesizer. This was bought a little over three months ago for just over £4300 including postage and customs fees. I have used it a bunch of times in studio since it arrived as it is just so much fun but it comes boxed with everything as it did when new including cables and 5 program cards. The only reason for sale is that we recently managed to buy a house and to help fund this we have had to start selling off our entire studio gear sadly. To state I am sad to see this amazing machine have to go now would be an understatement! Designed by the legendary Don Buchla (who died in September sadly), this is just an incredible sounding piece of art really.For more information about this incredible machine please go to the links below: And here are some amazing videos of the unit in action (the first uses a Moog Werkstatt with expansion pack as a controller which we are all auctioning off now): I have been away for over two months with work and kept it in studio with a dust cover over the keyboard - annoyingly the dust cover bunched up when closing it seems and left a light mark across the keys where it had bunched. It also caught onto one of the plastic key separators which came off (see pix) - these in no way affect the keyboard at all but I came home yesterday after 2 months away to see this and have to be honest. Please see the first three pictures to see this exactly. So there we go! The only reason for the auction is a very recent house purchase and the need for urgent funds for this so we are listing all sorts of stuff to afford this. It was a bit of a splurge purchase at the time and whilst I will no doubt lose a chunk of money on this, hope this goes to a good home! Please keep an eye out on our other listings. Please note that UK postage is via tracked and insured postage ONLY, and our international orders are covered through the eBay Global Programme. The service we use means the courier has to check inside the box before they confirm collection due to the value of insurance. This will come very well wrapped, but we are also happy to offer collection with cash payment from our house near Swindon. Please note we cannot accept bids from users with less than 10 feedback. Thanks for looking!
