I am the original owner and the CS-80 has been kept in my studio. It was
used for some gigs back in the 80s but has remained in my home studio (smoke
free) for last 15 years. It has some wear on the tolex and the metal clips
that lock the lid down are missing from the lid. The rear hi/lo gain switch
is a bit flakey but other than that, it is clean. I have the original legs
(no leg bag though), a copy of the manual, and a few extra light bulbs for
the illuminated tone select switches. My legs are missing the original
screws that attach the top of the stand to the bottom of the CS-80 but I
have generic hardware screws that I use.
I also have an Oberheim Matrix 12 with the separate outs in mint condition.
Again, I am the original owner have the original box, manual.
I am sad to part with these items but I have two kids in college and they
just sit here doing nothing (the keyboards, not the kids).
Make an offer if you are interested. I know the value of these items as I
was director of product development for Kurzweil Music Systems for over 12
years (K2000, K2500, K2600, PC88 et.). I now work at M-Audio. I will keep my
Super Jupiter and MIDImoog for now.
