Official: the Cheap/Hot/Rare/vintage gear lobang thread.

[aireydon]

maybe we can post the good finds from out web huntings here.

it would better for everyone if such info are posted in a single thread.
pls share your findings about cheaper lobangs, hot /rare items here.

got this idea after many softies asked me about the kx-5.

so lets start the ball roling with the kx-5.?

managed to find yet another site:

http://www.echigoyamusic.com/used/search3.cgi?CATE=Synth-Key

start drooling guys.:a black kx-5. and a vintage roland sh 101 too< if a "keytar"/midi controller is wat u are looking for. as usual they dont ship overseas but vpost japan may solve the prob.

email at: info@echigoyamusic.com . ( may take some days for reply, as they dont cater to international sales )

looks like roland ax-7 is getting out of trend after it began appearing on Miss Universe, Superband and F.I.R's latest MV.

Nice thread! Anything on speakers / monitors / amps?

Just received an email from Tom Lee (HK) (made an enquiry since I'm going to HK for National Day):

Korg Micro X => white color version is not available yet and black color
version will be available in next week and the price is at HK$4,400 (~$900)
(called City Music last week - price not out yet)

Roland SH-201 => this model will be available in the middle of August and
the price is at HK$4,800 (~$980) (Swee Lee quoted $1764! <- not sure if they made a mistake)

Anyone has the update of prices in SGP?

Pricing a little strange to me since in USA, the Korg Micro-X is more expensive (Micro-X S$1026 vs Sh-201 S$941).

BTW - during the call to City Music, I was quoted $795 for the Radias-R. If it's for real, it's a good buy because that's the lowest price I've seen for a new set worldwide.

 

[niteoverday]

is the korg X-50 out yet?

 

[lowjk]

is the korg X-50 out yet?

Not yet. Neither is the Micro-X.
They're still checking up on the price for the Radias-R.

 

[niteoverday]

tanx man,u've been a big help

Update: Tom Lee (HK)
Roland Fantom XR HK$8,800 = S$1,800 (with SRX-98 analog board free).
The best price I could get out of Swee Lee was $2268 (after an 40% "discount"). Difference = $400+.

Now the tricky part is convincing my wife that I need one.

 

[bongman]

oh! that's good news!
I'll go get one.

LowJK, but I'm wondering where did you know about the promotion?
I tried looking at the Tom Lee website, seems no such price?

Thank you if you can inform

roland ax-1 red

ishibashi used items("u-box")

roland red ax-1 keytar midi controller.

unlike the yamaha kx-5, its able to do splits and store patches and with one more octave, its lighter than kx5!
