So I’ve been trying to sell my AK for a while now. It’s too large for my space, I only got it over the A4 for indiv. outputs. I’d gladly have a MKII for indiv. outs or even a MKI as I actually don’t use the indiv. outs much… Anyway…
But what I can’t understand is how insane the prices have gotten. There’s a Mk1 on Reverb for $650 BIN!!! MKII’s are now under $1K…
That’s nuts! These are astounding devices… There’s not a poly analog synth that can touch these things, especially considering the sequencer, etc.
Is this just a result of Elektron shi#ing the bed with Overbridge and it’s bringing down the market value/reputation of their stuff? I can’t think of any other reason why the A4/AK would be getting hammered so badly in terms of resale…
But I guess it’s great for people that are looking to pick one up dirt cheap…
Sigh… An A4 for the price of a mid-level Korg… That’s just sad…
