Casio CZ-1000
Basically the CZ-101 with full-sized keys (but irritatingly, with the real buttons replaced with membrane buttons!) I walked into Music-Go-Round this afternoon to see if they'd gotten anything interesting in, and they had this super-cheap "as-is," with a flight case no less! It's in great shape and works fine. I haven't gotten to play around with it much yet, but I'm impressed with the sound - it's grittier and brighter than Yamaha FM, and thanks to the multiple operator waveforms it gets some impressive sounds for just two operators per voice. Not a bad deal :D

the only thing is the 8 single not poly, with 2 voices per sound that's down to 4 note. the only limiting factor, I wish at the time it had more poly.
Hmm, yeah, that's a bit of a limitation. Still, there's a lot of potential in this little sucker :)
I am VERY unhappy at the moment :(
This A1200 is in a right mess. It is filthy, shows the signs of usage.
Two keys were broken off and the springs look like somebody has stretched them.
The rubber feet look like all my other used 1200's
There is a missing screw on the internal drive bracket that holds the drive down.
The board is a rev 2B and it has two weeping caps and one that looks like it was replaced.
The trapdoor cover was off and is filthy and scuffed to hell.
The internal drive cage is missing.
The box does not match the serial numbers and is rougth as hell.
The top cover badge is one ive never seen before: A1200 HD?
So all in all, I thought this was going to be a very clean unused a1200 but so far nothing suggests that at all.
Oh and the psu looks like a CD32 unit?
EDIT: The picture I got in the email, the whole package looks better than what I have here?
Where'd you get it from? :blink:
Sounds like you've been had. Did you get it directly from this Petro guy? Whoever that guy was...Quote:

Ok I knew the box might be a bit off but the A1200 itself. Some of my old scabby a1200's are in better condition.
To say I am wee'd off is an understatement! I am now assuming this unit might be faulty. It just looks like I was rooked :(
EDIT: Rust under the keyboard, memory cover has been removed and put back. RF screw is almost out of its hole thing. Case is not even signed!
EDIT2: I got proper documents from Power Service GMBH here! Money was wired to Petro Tyschtschenko's account.
Quite the oppositeQuote:
