Roland - JV-80 - PROJECT

The JV-80 was an excellent mid-nineties digital synthesizer in its time. It helped lay the foundation for the later JV-1080, JV-2080 and XP-series synths. It featured a full 61-note keyboard and several sliders above the keyboard with assignable parameters for fast hands-on editing. Though its stock sounds are nothing great, it can take any of the SR-JV80 expansion boards for 8MB of great new sounds from any of the Orchestral, Vintage Synths, Techno, etc. sets. *This unit is in excellent cosmetic and working condition EXCEPT for the fact it is suffering from the dreaded red goop - the red epoxy that holds the key counterweights has degraded and leaked, causing clusters of keys to stick together. The only fix is to remove all the keys, soak in a mixture of baking soda / water to dissolve the glue, clean up, and the reglue each weight in place. After that it’ll be awesome once more, but for now it is SOLD AS IS!
