FT (US): Ensoniq ESQ-1 (needs repairing)

zeit · Joined: May 22, 2017 Posts: 1 Location: usa

I have an Ensoniq ESQ-1 that needs repairing (LED lights went out on me). When I boot it up I see the menu lights come on but go off quickly. It plays the last patch I was fooling around with. With the LED lights off, I can't seem to change patches or maybe it's "stuck" on some part of the menu I was previously on, can't remember. It *could be* a very easy fix but who knows!

Regardless, I can't figure out what the issue is so instead of trying to send it off for repair (it's heavy / will cost in shipping) I'll try and trade it.

Prefer someone in Georgia or North/Central Florida so I drive to meet up with you, but could ship it for the right trade. It's probably best for someone that knows how to fix it or knows someone who does. Of course, it's an amazing synth that sounds great. The sequencer is powerful. Great deal for the right person, in my opinion!

Stuff I can use but open to lots of other things...

Synths Modules
Kawai K4r/K1m/r
Yamaha TG55
Yamaha TX81Z
Yamaha TX7

Samplers
Akai S2000/1000/900
E-mu ESI-2000

Here's a couple of photos of it, looks the same as when I got it.
