Keio (Korg) Donca Matic Mini Pops 20S analogue beatbox for sale.
Very rare late-60s / early 70s machine. Stereo and with a sound quite unlike the other Mini Pops.
We’re only selling this because we already have one in our studio. As well as stereo it has two sets of variations – the achingly-hip “Young Beat” and the slightly suggestive “Fox-Swing” – which allow plenty of rhythms to be created with combined button presses. Add in great early analogue drum machine sounds, alternating flashing lights on the top, and the stereo patterns: this is a unique and rather lovely (and very useable) beatbox.
Photos are pre-service; rusted sockets and power socket will be changed.
Voltage is not switchable.
Condition
In excellent cosmetic condition. Woodwork is clean. Metal areas have a few signs of age – light oxidation and one small rust spot on the top of the panel, but nothing serious. Note that the rusted sockets will be changed during service, as will the power socket (to a standard IEC). See detailed photos for more info on cosmetic condition.
Voltage Information
100v Japanese model. For customers on 220/240v supplies we will supply a high quality step-down transformer free of charge with your purchase - let us know if this is not required. On North American mains (115/120v supplies) this unit will run without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use. We do not recommend using cheap, generic Chinese mains transformers - please ask if you have any questions about powering this unit.
Tax
For sales in UK/EU the price will include 20% VAT. If you have an EU VAT number (outside the UK) you can enter it at check out to have VAT removed.
