RE: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] Original Owners - Give A Shout!

2006-03-06 by David A. Pope

I originally owned a BRANDSPANKING NEW VFX-SD, you know, the ones that kept
on having gords of trouble..  After 3 or 4 repairs back at Ensoniq, and
after MUCH "complaining" (b&tching more like)  I was sent back a BRAND NEW
Ensoniq SD-1.  Still have it, still use it and still love it.  Gonna need a
battery replacement soon though. lol

I am curious as to how many original VFX and/or SD-1 owners are in 
this group???

I am an original owner having purchased my VFX-SD in 1989 and my SD-
1 in 1992. Both units are still in excellent condition and working 
perfectly.

Actually, I originally purchased a VFX in May of 1989 for $1795. In 
December of that year that same music store (Art's Music in 
Montgomery, Alabama) received their first VFX-SD and I just had to 
have it. They allowed me to trade in my VFX and allowed me $1444 on 
a trade in for the VFX-SD which sold for $2295. In hind-sight, I 
think I came out way on top in that deal.

I purchased the SD-1 in 1992. I don't have a receipt showing 
my `total' cost of the SD1. The music store (Boyd's Music in Little 
Rock, Arkansas) had to order it so I gave them "X" amount of dollars 
for a down-payment and my balance when the unit came in was $1650. A 
guess would be that I may have given them around $1000 down-payment 
to get the order going - making the total cost at that time around 
$2650.
