Yamaha SK50D 1980s RARE!

Amazing polyphonic ensemble keyboard/synth from Yamaha. This is the top of the line from the SK series (Symphonic Keyboard) and features dual 61-key manuals (keyboards), both a single-oscillator monosynth (with after-touch!) and a 7-note polysynth, in addition to bass and fully polyphonic organ (lower kybd is preset only; upper is preset and fully adjustable) and string engines. The monosynth can be played solo, blended with the upper organ, or assigned to supplement the bass section. Wild!

Also has connections for an external tone cabinet (e.g., Leslie) and for connecting organ bass pedals (not included). Through layering and by using the built-in tremolo and ensemble effects, the SK50D can achieve a CS80 vibe at a small fraction of the price.

There are some minor scratches and nicks, and an old cigarette burn(!) on one of the keys (see pics), but fully functional and in great overall condition. The only minor issue is that the upper manual tremolo LED doesn't light up when pressed (but the effect still works). Beyond that, all other buttons, switches and sliders are fully functional with some scratchiness on certain sliders, as to be expected in a unit this age.

Comes with built-in case, including lid, and original legs (which also fit inside the case). Cool!
