“Here we have a one of a kind rarity that came from a synth museum. It has been serviced and verified by tech that this was in fact a prototype of a v2 of the Electrocomp 500 that was in the works when EML stopped manufacturing and selling synthesizers. There are 4 vco’s, 2 filters, 2 envelopes and 2 VCA’s I will be uploading some more photos as soon as I pick it up from my tech.
Being that this is a one of a kind piece I am not super eager to part with it. I may consider reasonable offers but this is definitely one for the collectors out there!
Tech has gone over everything and everything is in working order.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
” This is one of the coolest pieces of gear my dad ( original owner ) had! This is a super rare Electrocomp EML-500, only 300 were ever made ( compared to the EML-1* series where 1000 were made ) and rumor has it there’s far less still in existence. I don’t know how to gauge “perfect working condition” in these old synths, but I do know it powers on and I saw it played within the past few years.

“Now listing my EML 500 for sale after owning it for 40+ years. This synth is much more rare than Moog, ARP etc. synths of yesteryear. Very few of these exist. There was way less production than those other popular synths. It has been stored and covered inside my home studio room for decades, never been outside. I bought it used at a local music store in the 1970’s. It hasn’t been played much for over 20+ years, I just turn it on occasionally. That said, it does need some TLC and cleaning etc. to bring it up to snuff.”
