Rare and excellent bass line synthesizer and sequencer along the same lines as a Roland TB-303.

Firstman SQ-01 Sequence Synthesizer for sale.
Quick to program and tweak. Features CV, Gate and Clock in and out. A great piece of gear and arguably more versatile than a 303 (which more than one source suggests was influenced by this unit).
Originally released in 1980 by Hillwood under the Firstman brand, before Multivox released it in 1981. Only a few 100 units were made and not many are still viable.
The plastic coating on these is often damaged but this one is intact and all the buttons and controls work well. After a battery change and clean of the sockets it is fully functional.
POWER: Provided with it is the required 12v Centre Negative PSU to run on Japanese 100v power. It can also run off batteries.
Excellent. You can see where the plastic coating has lifted up slightly on the bottom left, but overall it shows few signs of use. See photos for more information.
See description for more information.
For sales in UK the price will include 20% VAT. Buyers elsewhere may incur VAT or other local taxes on import.
