Please read through:
Shipping charges may vary, especially in Europe, if less the buyer will be re-imbursed, if more the buyer will have to pay the extra charges.

We will supply a video of the functionality of the item before shipping out. 
Oxidation may build up in pots and sliders, this is normal for vintage gear and will go away with use, and a good contact cleaner spray.
No returns or refunds unless proven by buyer to have sustained damage during shipping.
The buyer will need to supply ample documentation of damage with videos and photos, and is responsible of making a claim immediately at delivery, with the delivery man, if the box has sign of wear or damage.
Failure to do so will make it much harder to make claims with the shipping company, which is ultimately the buyers resonsibility. 
Damage occurance during shipping will be re-imbursed by the shipping company, not us.
Please respect this.
Thank you.


The Italian Beast Steelphon S900 up for sale, one of a very limited production run, the less than 100, all expertly hand-made in Turin, Italy in 1973. 
Includes 2 pedals: Filter Expression Pedal
Sustain On/Off Pedal

and the Original Steelphon Club monitor. 

The S900 Condition is Very Good, going on Excellent, it does have a few dings, please see photos, and the black panel with the logo some slight miscoloration. The filter-expression pedal has some slight wear.

Unusually good build-quality over-all, this is a reliable instrument, but can be a little sensitive to fluctuations in current and during warm-up, quite common for old synths. 

It has been refurbished and recapped earlier this year in March.

The Steelphon S900 does stand up well to the Mini Moog, the Moog Ladder Filter is on board and it can produce earth shattering basses and piercing or haunting leads.

The Steelphon S900 has some great, rare features for the time:

1. Programmable Presets (first synth with programmable pre-sets to our knowledge, various parameters are easily accessible and adjustable with a mini screwdriver under the black panel with logo, an individual circuit board for each preset, six in total with a hidden preset as well :)

2. CV Gate inputs (works very well, individual CV input for each oscillator so you can have 2 arpeggios going at the same time (!). 

Please check out the Youtube link, we made this video, it was partly made with this machine here for sale, and explains the various features.

220 Volt with European plug.
