Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Yamaha CS80

I was just thinking about all of the stuff I've sold over the years,
because I responded to Tom's post that I might regret selling the
CS80. He has a point, and you can bet that I won't sell it without
much consideration, because right now, I am not hurting for money, and
my gear lust is very low, having just completed a round of turning
over old for new. But here's a list of everything (at least synth
related) I've sold over the years, regrets or no, as well as I can
remember. How about you guys?

Farfisa Combo Organ (my god, that would would be worth something
today, wouldn't it? Dave Clark Five!

Hammond M3 with Leslie 122 (too bloody heavy and awkward to move.)

Rhodes Stage 73 (don't remember why--bought another to replace it.)

Hohner Clavinet D6 (lost to a pawn shop, oh, the humanity. Miss it to
this day.)

Moog Source (nice synth, but I have my minimoog.)

Moog Micromoog (was dead after 20 years in storage. Still went for
$510 on eBay.)

Moog Memorymoog (early version--pain in the ass, and unreliable. only
regret is that today I'd get much more.)

Oberheim Xpander (can't remember why I sold it. Just wasn't using it
that much, but what a great synth. It's the one I miss.)

Yamaha CS01 (I don't remember if I sold it or lost it, but it made
some funky sounds for a little bitty thing. Used it on some recordings.)

Yamaha DX7 (got my money's worth from it--don't intend to use it again.)

Yamaha TX816 (a truly powerful beast; I do miss it a bit, but not
enough for serious regrets. Got some killer bass sounds using three of
the modules in tandem.)

Emu Emulator I (got it in 1981 and used it for all it was worth. got
burned out on sampling, and still am after all of this time.
manipulating samples is like trying to make a puppet made out of dead
meat look alive.)

Linn LM1 (great drum machine, a classic. It's in good hands now, fully
restored, but I had no use for it, I got my money's worth.)

How about you guys? Now that vintage synths are going for crazy
amounts, what did you sell that you regret? Or don't regret? I still
covet an ARP 2600, but the last one on eBay went for $10,000+. no no no.
