Buying vintage synths in the UK?

Hi guys,

Im looking for an analog polysynth, an i’m really close to pulling the trigger an an Analog Keys, but before i do i want to fully consider the vintage alternatives. Im mostly interested in the Korg mono / poly and the Juno 60.

With these older synths, it seems to me that getting one from a reputable dealer is the key so that it has been maintained and wont break immediately…

I was wondering if anyone on here had recommendations of good dealers int he UK i could get in touch with? Almost of the ones I can find are US based.

Cheers,

Hi
try http://www.rlmusic.co.uk/

Dunno if Synth Restore in Bedford are still going ? Adrian there was a good guy.

Sadly I sold mainly ( MS20 / MonoPoly / MC-202 / CS-15 / CS-5 / …AARRRGGHHHH! ) :disappointed:

going for a lie-down now… :joy:

there’s this lot too http://www.vintagesynthshop.com/

who are in France but will happily ship to the UK I believe.

Never used them personally however, so can’t vouch for service etc.

Thanks guys!

RLmusic was recommended to me by someone else also, unfortunately they dont have either of the synths i am looking for however…

There are a number on ebay but its such a lottery as to if they are in good condition even if they do say ‘recently serviced’…

ah well, i will keep researching…

Cheers,
