Great write-up for this synth. I don't have all that much to add except that this synth does have some wonderfull sounds (Comic Wow is just awesome). It is not deep or phat, instead I find it to be best described as a bit biting. Don't expect for the sax to sound anything like a sax, but if you want classic analog sound-forms, this one really does have that 70's feel. Really, a very fun synth to play, and the aftertouch is definitely fun. They go pretty cheap, and are definitely a steal compared to most Arps. I got mine from a friend and it's in mint condition.
Also, it really is quite an attractive synth, with the nicest wood sides I have ever seen--they are moulded and have a nearly delicate feeling. But, don't be fooled by the appearance, this is one solid synth. Add on my Anvil case and it's instant hernia time. But, mine never travels, it just sits there looking and sounding majestic. BTW, mine still has it's plexiglass music stand. I just love this Arp, and I'll never even consider selling it. Well, maybe I'd trade it for a mint 2600--nah:)
