Thats cool. I have always loved the synths made between 1970-1983 pre MIDI. I have an early ARP OMNI the First version, which I bought for $150.00 from a Pawn Shop. I also had an early AXXE as well whcich had the Pitch bend knob. I wish I had not sold it. Paid $250.00 for it on ebay.
I would still like to own a Minimoog someday, but the current prcies for those are still too high. Could almost buy The Minimoog Voyager for the going price of a Vinatge Mini.
Sometimes even the more unusal synths are cool too.
Like Korg's Monopoly or The Prophet 600 (even though it has MIDI, it's cool becuse it was one of the first synths to have MIDI onboard.) Or some of Yamaha's Early synths, even the ARP 2600.
Chances are if I find an eraly synth at a reasonable price I will buy it. That's how I bought the OMNI, that and the Fact I thought It was cool, and was my first vintage synth. There is just something about all those knobs, and the woulden cases, and the fact that they are all analog.
