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).
Astonishing Roland TR-909 for sale in very near mint cosmetic condition and perfect working order.
This 909 looks like it's barely been used - the main face is almost completely unmarked - as can be seen from the 29 detailed photos above and below, it's in as close to new condition as you could wish to find. It is a 30 year old machine, so there are some very minor scuffs, scratches and marks to the corners, edges and sides of the unit: these are barely visible and don't detract from the overall impression that this is a time-warp museum piece. It is a joy to program and tweak: instant techno/house gratification.
It's just been serviced by James Walker at Synth Repair Services - he's cleaned the pots, recapped the power supply and installed the v4 EPROM OS for tighter MIDI performance. He couldn't believe the condition - it even has the original Roland AA batteries in the battery compartment (no leaks, still with plenty of charge). The only minor flaw is that the internal white plastic battery holder is cracked, but still fully-operational.
It comes with the original manual which is a bit dog-eared, but complete.
It is a UK 240v model so a step-up transformer will be required for USA/Canada etc.

"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."
JOSH LLOYD-WATSON & TOM MCFARLAND - JUNGLE
“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."
