Re: [CZsynth] cz-1

my main complaint about the CZ and VZ is the noise.  otherwise, they are the perfect "toy" synths :)  i feel sorry for people who dont take the time to program these.

  Wow talk about a lucky deal, $40 is almost free! The CZ-1 is a very high
  quality synth too. It's not toyish at all with velocity and a dynamic DCW.
  The other CZ's were cool especially for the $ but they didn't go all the way
  feature wise. The CZ-1 however does.

        I can't keep this one to myself...
        
        Back in 1995 I was in Sam Ash in New York and a dude walked in
  trying to
        sell his CZ-1, but apparently they had a lot of used gear in stock
  and
        they didn't wanna take anything that they could get big money for,
  so
        they wouldn't take it. I overheard the conversation that the guy
  with
        the CZ was having with the salesman, so I offered to buy it from
  him.
        The guy was looking to sell it for $100 with a Casio hard case. I
  asked
        him "Well, how do I know it works?" He said "It works" 
        I asked the salesman if I could just plug the keyboard in to see if
  it
        worked, but the salesman refused, so I told the guy I couldn't buy
  it (I
        would never buy anything from someone who just walked of the streets
  of
        NYC with out at least pluging it in)
        Apparently the guy was desperate to sell the CZ-1, because he said
  "Ok
        you can have it for 40 bucks." 
        So I bought it, took it home and pluged it in...it worked perfectly,
        looked brand new without a scratch, AND came with a case.
