This is a brokerage sale on behalf of the current owner. An excellent example of a legendary drum machine that is used but very well kept and only showing minor signs of wear.

Will be supplied as tested and working without warranty or fully serviced at an additional cost.

We have sold many excellent 808s covered by our guarantee to satisfied customers so you can order with confidence.

Commission sale on behalf of a client. If you have gear that you want us to look at selling on your behalf then please look at our Commission & Consignment page for more information and get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Condition

In very good cosmetic condition with only minor signs of age and wear. There are some places where the faceplate has started to discolour. Some of the coloured knob caps are missing on the control panel and it looks as though the fine tune tempo knob may have taken a slight knock but appears to work fine (this will be repaired if "serviced" option is selected). Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information on 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.
