Topic: For sale : Roland TR-808

I've decided to sell my 808.
bought it last year with the idea to build a small setup to try and make some music for my own pleasure.
I never got round to finishing the setup.
Meanwhile the 808 has hardly been touched and now i've decided to let it go to someone who will use this machine.

I replaced the step switches + caps, the start/stop and tap switches as well as the battery holder.
it comes with the original service notes, introduction & manual (both copies, not original) and a Roland pedal.
it's a 230V model as you can also see in the pictures.

serious offers via email please.

will ship worldwide

Re: For sale : Roland TR-808

@ VIII. Sorry mate, but it doesn't look like I will be using it anytime soon. And I could seriously need the cash.
But to be honest, I still have doubts...

@ David Vunk. It's located in the Netherlands.
serious offer? mail me please.

@ Black Shape. I don't see any porn...?!
could be my add blocker though.
808's are NSFW either wink
it's an Euro style plug indeed. 230V model

Got it all from that one guy that sells that stuff on ebay.
But I mean the switch, not the cap. Same for the tap button. The caps on those 2 are original, only new switches.
The stepbuttons have new switches + caps.
