The Legend of the 2813 Up for sale is a classic ARP Odyssey MK II, Model 2813 from the mid-70s. This is the iconic "Black and Gold" version, widely considered one of the most aggressive and characterful analog synths ever made. This specific model houses the sought-after 4075 filter, known for its deep, "woody" resonance and massive low-end—perfect for those classic duophonic leads and punchy basslines.
Condition & Recent Service This unit is in excellent vintage condition and has recently undergone a professional technical service to ensure it’s studio-ready. Unlike many vintage ARPs on the market, this one is a pleasure to play:
- Complete Internal Overhaul: All boards were inspected and cleaned.
- Slider Service: The original sliders (faders) were professionally cleaned and lubricated. They move smoothly and are not stiff, which is the most common issue with these units.
- Calibration: Both VCOs have been calibrated for excellent pitch stability and tracking.
- Power Supply: Checked and stabilized for reliable performance.
- Cosmetics: Great vintage shape. Minor signs of wear consistent with its 50-year history (please see photos for details).
Professional Packaging Guaranteed: This instrument is a piece of history and will be treated as such. I have extensive experience shipping vintage synthesizers and high-end musical gear globally.
International Shipping Times: Please note that I am shipping from Venezuela, and international transit times reflect current logistics:
- USA: Shipping to the US is slightly more costly due to specialized handling. Estimated transit time is approximately 21 days.
- Europe: Shipping costs are more manageable, with an estimated transit time of 45 days.
- Expedited Shipping: Faster shipping methods (Express) are available for both the US and Europe at an additional cost.
Note to Buyers: If you need the instrument sooner or have specific questions about customs and shipping to your country, please message me before purchasing for a personalized quote.
