2579.0. "Value of Old Moog?" by UNXA::LEGA (Saddam's Insane) Thu Feb 21 1991 17:08
Any care to venture a guess on how much an old Moog Modular
synth is worth. It consists of a single cabinet and keyboard
with 3 VCOs, 1 LFO, 1 HPF, 1 LPF, 3 ADSR, 3 patch point tie
modules, 1 module for CV attenuation, 1 module for feeding
in the Keyboard. Its all in a wood cabinet with power supply.
It works, It drifts a little. Physically its about
5'W x 2'H x 1.5'Deep, and about 70 Lbs. It sounds classic.
I'm not looking to sell, but my poor alma mater (Moravian
College, Bethlehem PA) has one and we are trying to figure
out how to get them a Mac, and selling off the Moog and
smaller Electrocomp unit may be the ticket. (They have
almost no cash for equipment).
I'd appreciate any insight on the Moog and acquiring Mac
and Midi equipment cheap for a worthy cause.

| This unit has more nostalgia value than usefulness today. It might be
worth as much as $1000.00 to a collector. I'd be interested in it, but
couldn't go that high. You might check some issues of Keyboard and
Electronic Musician, and look in the classifieds for places that sell
old modular gear. Get them to quote you a price they would buy it at.
Their selling prices always seem ridiculously high to me--I doubt you
could sell it for as much.

Here in Holland there aren't many modular Moogs out for sale. Therefore
prices can go up to as much as 3000$ for the set-up you describe (in
relative good working order and not looking like Keith Emerson took it
with him on all of his world tours...). Recently an ARP2600 was sold in
Amsterdam for 2500$

| The Japanese seem to have developed a fetish for these things. It
might be worth quite a bit in Japan...

One might say they have a "yen" for old gear...
