This is a vintage Arp AXXE analog synthesizer with Arp's Proportional Pitch Control. The Arp AXXE was made famous by musicians like, Pete Townsend, Herbie Hancock, etc.; this is a later production, Arp Axxe analog synthesizer. These are somewhat rare and extremely hard to come by; a true collector's piece. Three versions of the Axxe were manufactured during the 1970's, with the final two versions containing orange silkscreening and a slightly modified casing. The difference in these later versions was primarily the mounting of the keyboard. The earliest units of the original version lacked Arp's innovative "Proportional Pitch Control" pad, but they featured a copyright infringing version of a Moog filter that was later discontinued. This example is a version of model 2313, (#1630) while having the PPC pad; manufactured after Arp discontinuing the duplicated Moog filter. This unit has been recently serviced with no alterations by a professional music repair provider and is in excellent working condition with all functioning parts. Selling to contiguous United States only. Payment via PayPal only. Shipping is free to buyers/ paid by seller with insurance and items ship upon payments received and cleared.
