Submitted for your approval is the E-mu systems SP-12 Sampling Percussion unit.  If you know me, you know I love these.  I found this one bummy and busted.  I took it to Forat and after many repairs. He:Repaired boot problem.

This unit is a sparkling 30 year guaranteed worker.  Cosmetically it has some issues.  There is a black case instead of the normal grey, it looks like someone bought an sp1200 and then modded the sp12 panels over it.  The screen has a cover on it, which is not the same as I being on other units.  This unit works great though, sliders and buttons are immaculate, this is the turbo model with os 2.4 (See demo).  It has 5 seconds sample time.  The screen is brighter than ones I've had in the past, but I don't think it was replaced.  This unit is a trooper, it looks like it was serviced at rogue music years ago and for being older than me it's still working just as well.  Like always I get something I really want to keep and use in my studio and then rent comes due and I'm short so...Please feel free to ask me any questions or make me an offer.  Thanks for bidding.
