This 1983 Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 Rev 3.2 is a beautifully preserved example of one of the most influential synthesizers ever made. Hand-written internal date markings from 1982 and a 1983-dated bottom panel indicate this unit began assembly in late ’82 and was completed in early ’83—right in the golden era of analog innovation.

Cosmetically, it’s in excellent vintage condition with clean wood panels, intact silkscreening, and no major wear or damage. Functionally, it performs exactly as a Prophet should, delivering that unmistakable warmth, punch, and organic movement that made this synth a legend.
