Classic, vintage Star Instruments Synare 3 synthesizer drum.

Iconic drum synth used by many bands of the 1970s and 1980s - notably Herbie Hancock, Joy Division, Gary Numan, Tuxedomoon, Nina Hagen, George Duke, and lots of disco acts of the era.

Everything works 100% on it and, of course, it sounds super cool.

Cosmetically, it's in very good condition, especially for its age. It has a bit of the usual "stick scratches" in the middle of the pad, but it's solid, there are no problems triggering the pad.

Note: this instrument works on a couple of 9V batteries - so be aware that, because of that, the output is not super-hot like you'd get from a synth - it's more like an electric guitar that has a pre-amp in it. Make sure to use a good quality pre-amp to drive this (any decent modern audio interface has at least one pre-amp these days, or you can use a guitar/bass/keyboard amplifier, mixer, external pre-amp etc).
