Such a deal - Moog Voyager

From an electronic music email list I subscribe to - Toronto Craigslist:

From the ad:
Moog Voyager - $1200 (Jane & Finch)
Selling my Moog Voyager. Not in the best of shape as the drummer left burning cigarette on the top and there was some damage. Internal filters are mostly burned along with 90% of the oscillators and wiring. Half the keys are not workable and it does not turn on. Do not plug in as it sparks inside and may start a fire. Inside is much more damage than outside. No longer produces sound. Some of the knobs are still somewhat salvageable, however.

Regardless a great gem for anyone who can appreciate true analogue sound. Nothing sounds like a Voyager, truly one of the strongest synths of it's time and still stands up as one of the greatest analogue synths ever made. A treat to play and sounds like nothing else.

$1,200 FIRM. Pickup only.
Can't really see which model it is but the Voyagers run from $3K to $5K. Let's hope the drummer has a day job or insurance or some such. The ad has to be a joke though... Posted by DaveH at April 11, 2011 9:42 PM
