Solina String Ensemble Mark I -best |
| Description |
***REDUCED START PRICE = this has to be sold!***
The earliest and best version of the String Ensemble, the archetypal string synth sound. All of the models sound good, but as usual, it's this earliest one (before cost-cutting, bright ideas, and rationalisation kick in) that sounds the best. This is serial number 0088063, made by Eminent before ARP heard how good it was and bought in to a modified design.
Cosmetically, like 90% of Solinas, it is not very pretty. The control panel is sadly very faded and messy. But the keys are generally good (two repaired, a few with scuffs), and, most important, the nasty chipboard case, which frequently suffers damage because it is a very heavy instrument, has been replaced with a far better wooden cabinet. Checked and OK'd at VEMIA in March 2024. Packing 25GBP. |
