What a toy!

Because the mini-synth was touch sensitive, I would tap on the body of the synth to trigger the envelope, making it a great percussion effect. I also enjoyed the unique resonance, especially on bass notes, an electro-growl effect. Having little money back then (1980), this was my chance to bring the synthesiser sound to my band. The last time I used this was to create cheesy science fiction sounds for the TV show "Let's Bowl!" in 2001.

Gnarly

No presets. Can be gnarly and bassey, one of a kind.

Serial: N/A What a cool old unit from electro harmonix. The bottom seems to be made from cardboard and is in pretty rough shape with a bunch of tape holding it together. The unit shows some slight warping from being so old.All of the faders are in tact.

All items in The Official Junkie XL Reverb Shop ship fully insured with delivery confirmation. COA's were limited to the first 500 orders so unfortunately we do not have anymore.
