INTRO: ONE OF THE BEST PIANO/RHODES/SYNTH/STRING... SOUNDS I HAVE HEARD COMING OUT OF SOMETHING THAT IS NOT A PIANO, ANALOG SYNTH, OR AN EP!!!! Light, agile, portable stage performer with an AMAZING keybed, and very useful/complete features. Perfect for gigging!

 

WE HAVE A LARGE SELECTION OF CARRYING CASES!!!

Hard, soft, large, small…any kind; AT GREAT PRICES!

If interested, please check our other listings (under our profile). We have MANY posted.

And if you decided to purchase one, we can ship them together to save you money on shipping. Please let us know in advance, so we can make that possible by merging the two transactions into one.

 

CONDITION: This MUSICIAN'S DREAM-GEAR is FULLY FUNCTIONAL, and I would say it is in VERY GOOD cosmetic condition! However, and respectfully, since everyone has different standards; on the cosmetics, please don't take my word for it! I'll let the pictures do the talking. 🙂 

Keep in mind; this unit has some cosmetic damages that are somewhat hard to see. They were sealed and concealed. Please see the pictures.

 

SERVICE HISTORY: I am sure that if you are looking at this item, you know everything about it. So, I will first tell you about this particular gem:

IT HAS JUST BEEN FULLY INSPECTED/SERVICED AND IS READY FOR A NEW HOME! 

The following services were just done, which cost us over $925! IF you find another one for less than what ours is selling for, and since most of the used ones out there, that are supposed to be "fully functional", turn out NOT to be; you will then need to find someone who would work on these (which is very hard nowadays), and then who knows how much it would cost to make it fully functional??! CONDITION IS EVERYTHING!

SERVICES DONE:

  • Full inspection
  • Load tested for 2 hours
  • Mother board’s SD replaced and OS upgraded
  • Factory reset performed
  • Keybed fully disassembled and fully restored
  • ALL 88 key contact rubber switches replaced with new (fresh life for keybed!)
  • Side panels fused back together
  • ALL keybed PCB boards replaced
  • 12 chipped keys replaced
  • All original factory presets re-programmed
  • All sliders/knobs serviced
  • All switches serviced
  • All contacts cleaned
  • All buttons serviced
  • Cleaned inside and out

PERSONAL OPINION: After trying it on/having fun with it (the best part about what I do with every single synth we get/have 😄), these are my professional insights/opinions about this magnificent machine:

  • Suuuuperb sequencer!
  • It is like having a DAW in your synth!!!
  • Amazing rhythms!
  • Best Rhodes samples ever!
  • Gorgeous/modern/beautiful...
  • Super easy interface/simple/clean layout
  • Superb/large touch screen
  • Amazing effects/filters
  • Tons of options for connectivity 
  • Huuuuuge library of sounds/beats/arp!!!! All you can eat; ever... 😄
  • Superb arp!
  •  Breathtakingly realistic drums!
  • Very user friendly
  • Superb hammer action weighted key-bed
  • Amazing/very thoughtful features; based on the musician's needs...

This synth is simply AWESOME! 

The sounds are BREATHTAKING! Super natural Pianos, E-Pianos, Synths, Strings...every bit as good, if not better, than the real organic music instrument it came from! Big claims, I know, but try it for yourself, and you'll come to the same conclusion! 

Has TONS of great features like ARP, SEQ, RYTHMS, EQ, TOUCH SCREEN... that allows you to express your musical talent, any way you like! 

It is SUPER LIGHT and SUPER VERSATILE, making it the PERFECT SYNTH FOR GIGS/BAND/LIVE PERFORMANCE!! and I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD!!! 

The Korg Krome Keyboard is a powerful workstation that open the door to immersive methods of sound creation. The unit features an array of precisely-crafted sounds, each sampled from a full-length, unlooped source to bring users the most dynamic and versatile sounding voices possible. The Krome’s sound palette consists of pianos, electric pianos, and drum kits—each of which aspires to the realism and authenticity of their acoustic counterparts. All of this combined with an extensive effects section, dual polyphonic arpeggiators, and a touch interface make the Krome a desirable choice for both the studio and stage.

A VIDEO:
 

A LITTLE ABOUT ME (Kevin):
I am a 46-year-old, with a degree in Electronics Engineering, who LOVES Synthesizers, sounds, Music, and Electronics in general. Even though I do not work in the Electronics industry; I have always loved/adored it, never separated from it; and as a hobby, I collect and restore them; and sometimes sell them to make room for others... 

I've been around Synthesizers for over three decades, have serviced/restored hundreds of them, and have hundreds of the rarest/most sought-after synthesizers/keyboards available for sale. (which is one of the largest selections of used synthesizers found in one place!)

WHY BUY FROM US? (full version)
When you're buying a vintage (or just a used) car, does the condition matter? Of course it does! 😊 Are two used cars that are the same make and model the same? Would all similar (year, make and model) cars sell at the same price? No; there are many factors that would decide what price they fetch. Mileage, body, functionality, extra options, service history, past use... and one of the most important ones is CONDITION, which is everything! That is the reason a factory certified used Mercedes, fetches at least $4000 more, than the one you'd buy from a private seller you find on Craigslist.😊That's why when it comes to buying a used car, price is not everything... And buying a secondhand synthesizer, is no different than purchasing a vintage or used car.
Yes, I'm proud of my children for sure. Mainly because when it comes to used keyboards and synths (just like used cars), condition is EVERYTHING! I have searched hard, hand-picked and collected only the best of the best that are in pristine condition (majority of them); and then had them professionally inspected, serviced/repaired (if needed), reprogrammed/restored (if needed), detailed... 
There's definitely value in that. On average, we spend about 5 hours on every single keyboard, before offering it for sale, and if they're not serviced, or if they don't pass the inspection, WE DON’T SELL THEM! We believe in selling ONLY high-quality items, to ensure that our clients are very happy with their purchase, which produces repeats, referrals and customers for life! 😁Not to mention the professional musicians that need to count on their instrument's reliability, as their livelihood depends on it. We have the biggest respect/admiration for the professional musicians, and want them to have peace of mind when they step on the stage…
In contrast, when it comes to USED GEAR FROM OTHER SOURCES, including the major retailers, you'd have to keep your fingers crossed until it arrives... And most often, they are NOT WHAT THEY WERE DESCRIBED TO BE, and most often, there is something wrong with the gear (as I am sure you, just like me, have experienced many times before). And often enough turn into headaches or heartaches...

However, you can rest assured, that if you buy from us, you will get a fully functional gear, and you'll get to see tons of details and pictures, before making up your mind! 🙂
No retailer would service them prior to the sale (they don’t even wipe it down!), as it costs an additional $300-$800 (or more)! Not to mention finding a Synth Tech is extremely difficult/costly nowadays. And that is what we do, as a labor of love! We do this because we really enjoy ANYTHING and EVERYTHING about synthesizers! Buying, selling, fixing, collecting, playing...we just love them! 😍
And finally, CUSTOMER SERVICE, which is also one of the major factors in retail/buying. We try our very best to provide everyone with the best possible service and experience; a fun one! We always stay on top of all communications in a timely manner, even/specially after the sale, which is where most sellers often disappear, or just don't care/reply...

Also, we are a HUGE believer in preserving, not just synthesizers (especially vintage!), but also our planet! So, we recycle EVERYTHING, and re-use as many parts as we can (fully functioning parts from donors), to help reduce our carbon foot-print.

If you've made it this far on this very long scroll 😄, you have our biggest thank you!
