For Sale: Restored ARP 2600 (Model 2601) Analog Synth – A True Classic

Up for sale is a beautifully restored ARP 2600, one of the most iconic synthesizers in history. This particular unit, a 2601 model, has been lovingly refurbished to ensure it sounds and performs exactly as it should.

Very few come to market in this kind of condition, making it an exceptional opportunity for collectors, musicians, and serious synth enthusiasts.

Highlights

  • Family-Owned Since the ’70s – Carefully looked after from new, with a clear history.
  • Professional Restoration – Fully serviced by an expert vintage synth technician. Every detail was addressed: cleaning, rewiring, power supply rebuild, cabinet refurbishment, and much more.
  • Climate-Controlled Storage – Preserved in ideal conditions to maintain integrity.
  • Keyboard Flexibility – Comes with a custom-built keyboard adapter, allowing the use of any MIDI keyboard via a MIDI-to-CV converter (like the Kenton Pro Solo Mk3). While the original keyboard is long gone, this upgrade makes the synth more versatile than ever. If you do own an original keyboard, it’s fully compatible with this 2601.

Restoration Work

The restoration process was extensive, taking over two years and documented in detail (paperwork will be included for the buyer). Some key work carried out includes:

  • Cabinet: New Tolex, rebuilt sleeves, structural repairs, upgraded to a modern IEC power inlet.
  • Power Supply: Rebuilt with new components, including transformer, regulators, and fuses for safety.
  • Panel & Electronics: Sliders cleaned and lubricated, caps and transistors replaced, circuits refurbished and calibrated to factory specs.
  • Reverb & Connectivity: RCA connectors replaced, breakout box built for CV/GATE/TRIG.
  • Testing: PAT-tested and soak-tested to ensure flawless performance.

A Synth with History

The ARP 2600 is legendary, used by countless artists across decades:

  • Edgar Winter, Stevie Wonder, Brian Eno, David Bowie, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Nine Inch Nails, Mike Oldfield, Pete Townshend, Herbie Hancock … the list goes on.
  • Famous in sound design too: R2-D2’s voice in Star Wars and effects in Raiders of the Lost Ark were crafted on an ARP 2600. Even classics like Madonna’s Borderline and Michael Jackson’s Thriller featured its unmistakable sound.

Additional Info

  • Shipping to be arranged with the buyer (please contact us before purchase).
  • Serious buyers only – this is a rare, museum-grade instrument.

Step into the world of true analog synthesis with the ARP 2600 — a rare chance to own one of the most sought-after instruments in music history.
