I've had this DW-8000 for about twelve years, but it's seen very little play in that time. It's a great instrument, but it's too big for me to keep set up in my tiny studio space, unfortunately. I'm hoping to sell to someone who will put it to good use!
The synth looks and sounds great. One issue is that, if I haven't touched it in a few weeks, I'll need to "warm up" the keys by playing scales or something for a few minutes. Otherwise, some notes may stick or be less responsive. (This is a known issue with many of the keyboards on the Korg synths from this era, unfortunately. You can, of course, use an external MIDI controller if you're concerned about the keys.) All other functions appear to work as expected.
There are a few minor cosmetic issues, but they're only noticeable if you're up close. The things I've noticed should be visible in the photos. I've only played this synth a handful of times in my home studio over the years, I live in a smoke-free home, and I've never played it out live or on the road. I don't know the previous owner, but they appear to have taken great care of it as well. Please contact me if you have any questions about the synth's condition.
I'm including in this listing a power cord for your convenience. I don't have the original manual, packaging, or other materials, unfortunately.
I can ship, but I'm also offering local pickup for the northern Delaware area. I live in Wilmington DE, just a few minutes off I-95. If you're coming from far away, we could meet some place like Hockessin, Claymont, Bear, or Newark (DE) to shave some time off your drive if you like. I'm not able to meet outside the northern Delaware area. Please contact me before purchase so we can make sure a pickup is possible for both of us.
