Nowadays, we sell most items directly on our website, but occasionally use eBay too. Please mark us as a favorite seller.

ABOUT THIS ITEM:
Due to the high value of this item and the abundance of dishonest people out there, PLEASE READ EVERYTHING here, tell us a little about your interest and wait for our permission to buy as we want to be sure this transaction will be a pleasant one for both of us.
Like nearly all the high end vintage analog synths we sell, this item has been METICULOUSLY disassembled, cleaned inside and out, FULLY serviced by professionals whove been servicing and selling vintage synths for nearly 3 decades, and systematically tested multiple times over a long period to ensure its working exactly as it should. No BS. No ebay surprises. Were perfectionists and dont cut corners. Although this instrument came to us in relatively good shape, we want our items to be better than the rest and invested *many* hours of tech time plus parts costs to fully overhaul this unit so it would be clean, working like new again and as reliable as possible for its next owner. This was a serious investment of time, love, and money, and was definitely worth the effort and is of course reflected in the higher than usual price. If youre looking for a great sounding example of this model that works just like it should without needing to invest hundreds or thousands of dollars in tech fees and waiting from weeks to years, this one should make you very happy.
We meticulously refurbished this 2600 in an attempt to future proof it and to make it better than others you may find. This included the following work:Replaced all faders and slider caps with brand new ones, so all faders work great, with no crackle at all (our cost for these parts was nearly $500)
Rebuilt power supply in an attempt to greatly extend its life.
Replaced synth section handle with similar one.
Replaced tantalum caps as a preventative measure to greatly extend this units life.
Replaced reverb tank rubber bushings.
Replaced rubber bushings in keyboard.
Cleaned keyboard J-wires and bus bars.
Resoldered feet of all modules.
Replaced Cinch Jones connector.
Replaced 3 4027-1 and 1 4015 submodules with our tech’s exact replicas so future repairs will be possible (the originals are sealed and cannot be opened for servicing).
Corrected mistakes made at the factory (a couple connections were never soldered!)
The tolex was a bit chewed up along the edges, so we used a black marker to color the wood where it was showing. Replacing the tolex is possible but we’re unfortunately not set up to do that here, so we will leave that decision up to the buyer.
Lengthy burn in test, systematically tested multiple times and working perfectly.
…and more.This work required a total of 30 hours of skilled labor.
The synth section comes with a lid, though it appears to have come from a later 2600 as the tolex does not match. The keyboard section comes without a lid. Sale includes power cord and new Cinch Jones keyboard connector cable.Ebay only hosts a limited number of photos. Weve posted 43 photos of this unit on our website.The shipping calculator only shows approximate cost for shipping the synth section and not the keyboard and is probably way higher than it should be for international. Buyer will be billed for the additional shipping charges after purchasing this item.
If you have one of these youd like properly restored, we can help!
