For sale on behalf of a customer: a Roland TR-808 in very good cosmetic condition and perfect working order.

This 808 has had very low use from new: the original owner is a well-known producer who put this back in the box in the 80s and left it there. There are a few scuffs, scratches and patches of oxidation to the finish, but it's clear that this 808 hasn't had a hard life. As can be seen from the many detailed photos below, it presents very well. The original box is tatty and missing the polystyrene inserts - at the time of listing, the manual has not been found.

It's just been serviced by James Walker at Synth Repair Services.

It sounds great and is a joy to program and tweak.

It is a UK 240v model so a step-up transformer will be required for USA/Canada.

We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers and can supply a high quality UK-made transformer if required.

We've sold several excellent 808s to satisfied customers in the past so buy with confidence.

Please view the many detailed photos to fully-assess the condition before buying.
