   i am a madison,WI based musician/student and i'm looking for any old
analog synthesizers, analog drum machines, sequencers, samplers, modules,
etc. that might be just sitting around collecting dust, either by lack of
use, since today's technology has past these old dinosaurs by, or by 
simply
stopping playing keyboards altogether. i do techno/electronic music with
these things (i can even download some samples of stuff i've done, if 
you're
interested) and i've found that today's digital synths don't sound quite 
the
same, and are lacking a certain feel that analog synths offer. they also 
lack
the hands on feel of the interface that the older synths had, that has 
been
tossed by the wayside by most companies producing keyboards today.

if you need money to pay the rent, tuition, or whatever, i usually have 
cash
ready within the week (or if absolutely necessary, i can direct you to
someone else locally that might be interested).

PLEASE, don't let these things just sit around, or worse, don't sell them 
to
some dealer in NY who is just going to turn around and sell them for a 
quick
buck. keep them local, and get them to someone who is going to use them. 
BEWARE OF
SOMEONE LOOKING FOR A 303, 909, 808, etc. i'd like them too, but they are
extremely expensive ($700.00 to $1100.00), so i couldn't afford them, 
even if
i really wanted to buy them.

CHECK IT OUT BEFORE YOU SELL!!!! i would much rather deal with someone 
that
knows the market value of a synth. it's just easier that way, for me 
anyway.
i'm looking to pay market value of these synthesizers, NOT $50.00, like 
some
joe schmoe would try to pay you for your 303. CHECK IT OUT!!!

I'M NOT LOOKING FOR YAMAHA PSR-SERIES or ANY CASIO BOARDS!!!

i am looking for the following. please note that some of the prices 
aren't
low ball offers, i just would only buy them at that price:

roland: jx-10: $250.00, tr-707: $75.00
korg: mono-poly: $250.00
ARP: solus: $150.00
yamaha: dx-11: $150.00
sequential circuits: prophet-2000: $100.00

the following are things i already own, so i wouldn't be interested in 
having
more than one of them (except the 606 and msq-700):

roland: juno-106, jx-3p, mc-202, tr-505, tr-606, msq-700 (sequencer)
oberheim matrix-1000
yamaha: dx-100, tx-81z
sequential circuits prophet-600
korg ms-20

mackie cr-1604 (mixer)
alesis 3130 (comp,/lim.), monitor two's
digitech studio quad (fx)

thanx,
