Same here interested, mine’s #510 and been under the impression it was a 1972 build. Don’t think so now after seeing 1407 with a much earlier date

I just can t believe that after 40 years they can t design an instrument that improves upon the Mini Moog... Two oscillators? monophonic? 25 keys? Really?
