Roland SH-1

Post by Computer Controlled »

Guess i'll kick start this forum.

This past weekend i grabbed me a heavily smoke damaged SH-1. Despite the ugly look, it works 100%!

I spent almost 3 hours taking the keys off and scrubbing the hell out of them. I used a total of 5 Mr. Clean Magic Erasers.

These are great synths. This is actually the 3rd one i've had over the years. The ugliest, but also the cheapest =o]

Nice work!
I've never seen one that bad. Was it in a house fire, or belong to the band Great White?

Never say it's ugly or I might pay a visit to your house:)
It's one of my wet dreams and the prettiest synths ever made. If you got bored with yours, pleas send me pm. Will buy it for sure.
Cheers!)

p.s. why is this forum so poor?
