Description
The flagship of the OB series, this is a 8 voice, 120 Program vintage Oberheim OB-Xa. One of the most awesome, fattest sounding analog synthesizers of all time! The synth has just been extensively serviced in May 2020 by Synthchaser with:
- Rebuilt power supply, including new capacitors, multi-turn trimmers, and beefed up bridge rectifiers
- Rebuilt voice cards, including new capacitors and multi-turn initial frequency and pulse width trimmers
- Synthchaser battery eliminator module installed – saves the presets without the need for a backup battery! Factory patches have been loaded.
- Full calibration – power supply, DAC, and voice cards – in tune and sounds awesome!
- New key bushings, keys and key contacts cleaned
- New side panel screws, new nuts for rear panel jacks
Overall reasonable condition, with a fair amount of scratches on the case. Some extra holes that were drilled in the back panel have been plugged, and there is a tiny hole on the front panel. Wood side panels are in excellent condition. Here is a video showing the keyboard is working and sounds freaking awesome:

Due to COVID-19, I am not currently offering local pickup or delivery for this item, shipping only. The instrument will be professionally packed by the UPS store and insured for the full purchase price, but this is a vintage electronic item, so all sales will be as-is and final. But check out the Synthchaser Youtube channel and rest assured that this keyboard was given a quality service job by an experienced and detail-oriented Oberheim expert! Ships within the US for $4.99 (no typo!). No international shipping on this keyboard.
