7 for a song

7 for a song

Hi gang,
I'm not a 7 collector, but a deal if you happen to be.

A song, $200 and 96 miles. Picked it up this morning and, other than a bad solder joint on the mono out and 25 years of smoke residue, it is awesome! Came with hi hat module and pedal (!), manual, cables, catalog and original sales reciept. Pads are later version with floating surface. I'll upload pictures once I'm done cleaning it.

I am not speechless. Why should somebody keep his 3rd party eproms if he sells his SDS1/7? I would be speechless if someone commercially sells Michael's eproms without any player like it was the case some time ago.

true... and when looking at the seller's feedback I see he specializes 
in e-drums and drum machines. 1300 for a Oberheim DX is almost as hilarious.

I just wonder if that price will be paid in the end or if it was only some fake bidders ?!
Digital Claptrap wasn't that cheap as well, but still fine if someone wants it.
By the way, I'm selling a few bits a pieces also:

- SDS 2000 , works fine, missing one knob and rack ears, good condition with only minor rust on case.
- SDE with Cartridge, 110V, cosmetically has seen better days, but works flawless, no rack ears
- SDS-1 Black in great condition with EPROMS  € 999.- (joking ;-)

Have a great evening you Hexaheads,

Thomas
