“Up for auction is a vintage Akai AX80 Programmable Polyphonic Synthesizer keyboard. This one was made in Japan, in the 80’s, serial number 0062036543. This one turns on and almost all the functions work with three exceptions:
The “F” key above middle “C” does not work
The Modulation control does not function
The power cord’s shielding is frayed where it goes into the keyboard (keyboard still turns on, but it is a shock hazard) and should be replaced
The body has some dings and dents. It will ship in its original gig bag, which is in fair condition. It will also ship with a printed copy of the original manual. We are selling this keyboard for parts or repair. “ Click here to search for synths on eBay
“For your consideration I have a ultra rare AKAI VX-90 rack. It sounds amazing and is 100% functional. It comes from a clean smoke free home. It comes with the original rack ears and hardware. This is a VCO synth with a lot of cool features. All of the waves have pulse width. You can stack half or all of the voices in unison and then detune them for a super fat sound. Its really easy to edit from the front panel. It also has an input to process external audio form AKAI samplers. The only thing worth mentioning it that the power cord has been shortened to fit in a rack, it does not affect the synth whatsoever.” 
“I am offering a Preowned Vintage Akai AX80 1980’s Analog Synthesizer. Please understand that it is being SOLD AS IS WITH NO GUARANTEES AND NO REFUNDS. Also understand that this is a very large item and shipping costs will reflect this. I have no control over shipping costs. Here is what I know. The unit powers up without issue and produces undistorted sound. I was able to produce different sounds by adjusting controls. Pitch bend works as it should. I was never able to affect sound with the modulator wheel or the master control knob. One key is broken, but still produces sound. Another key, “A”, is depressed and doesn’t spring back. It does not produce sound. The following, “D” note does not produce sound. Some of the keys had been written on with a marker. I removed most of it with some remaining. I believe it will all come off with additional effort. The tone knob is missing. The exterior in general shows scuffs and scrapes/scratches. AGAIN, THE PIECE IS BEING SOLD AS IS FOR PARTS OR REPAIR.”
” Akai VX90 rack mount synth. I picked this up years ago with the intention of having a play, but never got round to it. I have to list it as untested as I stupidly threw the power cable out in a recent studio cable clear out. It worked when I first got it. I’m including the sampler link cable.”
