“Roland SH-101 Monophonic Bass Synthesizer Please Read Condition w/ Mod Grip

Unit works but I am not sure that it works 100%. I am not sure what each individual selector is supposed to do. Some of them do not seem to do anything.

Missing battery compartment cover and 2 of the level control knobs. Level can still be adjusted. At least 4 of the level controls are bent.

I wiped this down fairly well. It was quite dirty & dusty when I received it. It could still use more cleaning. There might be discoloration from smoke damage, I am unsure.

Strap buttons have mismatched screws & are the wrong size. Included AC adapter is an aftermarket replacement generic brand.

One screw on the bottom is missing. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“I have owned this for many years and I’m now moving abroad and selling my studio equipment.

This is probably the best SH-101 for sale anywhere in the world!

It comes with the original grip, leather strap, carry bag, owner’s manual a new power supply and a Kenton Pro Solo MK2 so you can use midi with the 101 via the CV gate. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“For sale is a rare vintage Roland SH101 analog monophonic synthesizer including the original MG1 Mod-Grip and Roland leather strap for wearing it like a keytar. It’s tested and fully functional. We have not serviced it and it has the typical power button issue when gently touching on the power-on button, the pitch can shift. It’s not an issue when not pressing the power-on button, and we found it to stay in tune and track quite well over the octaves. We can have the power-on button replaced / serviced as needed for additional cost, contact us if interested. The only other thing worth noting is that the battery compartment lid has broken tabs so it doesn’t click in place like it should, but we found it still stays on. A piece of tape could remedy it or you could source an aftermarket or NOS lid replacement for approximately $20 – $40. This is a classic mono synth with fun build in arpeggiator / sequencer and capable of a wide range of sounds for bass, leads and effects. The SH-101 is a personal favorite with a classic Roland synth tone. Also includes original manual (there is some wear to the manual and it appears to possibly be missing some pages).”

“Roland SH-101 vintage monophonic analogue synthesiser from the 1980s. In excellent condition, complete with shoulder strap, mod grip, and good quality Boss power adaptor. Also included, but not pictured, is the original paper manual in very good condition. I don’t know a lot about these but it seems to be working just as it should! It’s had the modern Tubbutec upgrade fitted too, complete with MIDI ports. The plastic has yellowed somewhat, but this is to be expected considering it’s around 40 years old! The battery compartment is rust and corrosion free, and all screws are present on the underside. All in all a really excellent example of this classic synth, and not to be missed! ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

” Lovely example, every key/switch/dial/knob cleaned, tested and working as it should (please see video). This is an original un-modded version of this classic synth – if you want one with all the MIDI retrofit bells and whistles, see my other listings.

Overall condition is pretty fresh considering age, and most importantly it’s sounding great and tracking pitch really well up and down the octaves (tested in Fab Filter Pro Q3). As with all vintage analogue synths exact tuning may vary due to temperature, time of day, what pyjamas you’re wearing – the tune knob helps you get it spot on, but the important thing is that once dialled in it tracks consistently (which this 101 does).

The only cosmetic blemish I can see that’s worth of note is a tiny mark on the keys to the far right, shown in the final close-up image, also the battery compartment doesn’t sit completely flush on the right (but is totally clean inside), also visible in the pics.

Includes the original (working) Mod Grip, as pictured, and good quality (stable & noise-free!) 9V power adapter.

Will be packed VERY carefully and shipped in a sturdy box, tracked and insured. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland sh-101 synthesizer with mod grip, tested with batteries and on a modern boss 9v power supply and it is working as it should. Power supply not included. It is cosmetically in nice shape. The back has one missing screw but it does not effect operation in any way. The bender/mod wheel has been repaired at some point in the past as you can see in the last picture but it works the way it should and seems like a solid repair. “ Click here to visit listing on eBay

“I bought this used awhile back and never use it so i am losing it.

This was modified by the previous owner. It was painted and a 3 speed LFO switch (super fast)

was installed. Everything works like normal as far as i can tell. Rough but ready to rock.

The battery use stopped working for some reason and can only be powered by included adapter.

One of the springs in the battery compartment broke but that is not the reason why the battery power does not work.

The body has seen some use and has some holes drilled into it from the previous owner who was going to do more mods to it.

Also some tape residue and rattling inside probably due to loose screws or broken plastic.”

“Pristine Roland SH 101 monophonic analog synthesizer with mod grip, usb to cv interface, dust cover and power supply

This synth was serviced when I bought it 3 years ago and it’s been used in a smoke free studio environment the time I’ve had it. No cracks in the case, barely any signs of wear even on the bottom, all sliders feel great, as clean a 101 as you’ll ever find.

I’m including the dust cover and valspar usb to cv converter I bought to sequence it from my daw, which works perfectly. Just don’t use this synth as much as I used to. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“The machine produces an unstable timbre. This appears to be caused by degradation of the power switch. You can reproduce the fault if you wiggle the power switch while you play a note (see end of video). While the 101 behaved reasonably well during the recording of the video, the fault is intermittent and can vary significantly. This is a common issue on the SH-101 and the solution is to either fix or replace the switch. Apart from this, all keys, sliders, buttons, switches and the pitch/modulation bend work, the sequencer stores and plays sequences correctly, arp works, and the output is clean. Cosmetically there is a little wear around the battery compartment lid and the clips have snapped off leaving two small holes. The battery compartment itself is fine and the rest of the chassis looks great. The MGS-1 works although even when at zero it alters the pitch slightly and you need to adjust the master tuning to compensate. The Kenton Pro Solo MK3 is in good condition and works fine.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland SH-101, Mod Grip, Case, Roland-Ledergurt, Bedienungsanleitung, original Netzteil

Hallo,

der Synthesizer ist in sehr gutem Zustand und natürlich voll funktionsfähig.

Das Gerät wurde von einem Fachmann überprüft. Den Beleg lege ich bei.

Der Schlüssel für das Case ist auch dabei, ebenfalls alle Schrauben für den Mod Grip.

Weil das Case recht schwer ist, sind die Versandkosten etwas höher.

Abholung wäre dem Instrument jedoch lieber 😉

Haben sie Fragen? Weitere Fotos/Video gewünscht? Bitte einfach melden.”

“In Blue.
The classic run was the grey model…they sold a bucket load of those…but the Red and Blue lines are more rare.

A classic mono of the 80’s…great sound form a single VCO.

This machines works well, cosmetically there are a few blemishes here and there as Ive tried to show in the pics……a few screws missing on the bottom plate. The Mod (MGS-1)grip is dodgy – a tech or DIY idiot had a go at it before i brought it so it doesn’t work that well but could probably be fixed…it basically seems to work but where you wiggle the connection into the synth the sound changes!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“For sale is an original 1982 Roland SH 101 plus some incredibly rare accessories. Original Mod Grip + very rare vintage original Roland Leather Strap + the very rare original Roland Carry Bag. These items were picked up in Japan along with the synth from a very well respected dealer and Roland technician who had just performed a full service of the synth. The synth itself is in pristine condition and working 100% perfectly. Battery compartment is clean as a whistle. An absolutely phenomenal synthesizer with many capabilities and with these incredibly rare accessories (which would fetch a pretty penny on their own) is a real collectors piece and a solid investment.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“For sale Roland SH-101 – really good condition. No issues – full working order.
Comes with modulation grip. Amazing filter – the pit bull terrier of the analogue synth world.
One small cosmetic issue, the previous owner has marked the plastic surface to remember the setting of a sound, once you have scene it once you don’t notice it a second time (see pictures).” Click here to visit listing on eBay
