Ace Tone Rhythm Aces were the direct ancestors of the mighty Roland TR series of drum machines and this bears more than a passing similarity to the layout of the TR-55.
Sonically, the Ace Toen FR-3 is a real treat – lovely warm analogue beats that have a pleasing ‘woody’ tone to them – and it’s not marred by any noticeable age-related artefacts. The sound is quite distinct from the Roland machines that came later – primitive and full of character.
Working well. Has been serviced by our techs, some capacitors replaced and extensively tested.
CONDITION: Excellent overall; light signs of age (the knob centres always peel on these) as you’d expect but nothing more. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.
