Ludwig Phase II Synthesizer
Ludwig Phase II Synthesizer
Brand: Ludwig
Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).
Incredibly rare effect; serviced and in excellent cosmetic condition. Manufactured in very small quantities, in around 1970 to ’71, it isn’t really a synthesizer. It’s a mix of fuzz, tremolo, and formant filtering—all achieved in the pre-chip era using discrete circuits.
Product Description
While the paltry menu of effects offered in the Ludwig Phase II Synthesizer may not immediately seem appetising, wait until you see one in the flesh. The design is a showstopper, comprising coloured backlit panel controls and a flip-up panel lid with a flip-down pedal section. And check out the controls: fuzz mix, animation, and formant trajectories (the latter refined into parallel, counter, and vowel variants).
Condition
In excellent condition for a unit this rare. There are some scratches and dings across the metalwork. The metal edges are slightly bent in places, this does not affect the functioning of the unit. The interior is also very clean with scattered dings and scratches across. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."
DAVID WRENCH
“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."

“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
