R. A. Moog Troubador theremin for sale

R. A. Moog Troubador theremin for sale

2009-02-28 by Michael Evans

Hello fellow thereminists that I know and those that I do not know,
Please pardon my intrusion.
I have compiled a list of your addresses from the various forums such  
as Theremin World, Aetherphon, etc.(of which I have been a quiet  
member each of) and from my personal experiences. I am excited to  
inform you all FIRST! that I am presently selling my R. A. Moog  
Troubador theremin for $5,000 before I put it up on Ebay in approx. a  
week or two...
It is in excellent working condition(it was just recently repaired  
and callibrated!) and pictures of it are included here in this email.  
Please note that in the third photograph, the characteristic "metal  
plate" for volume increasing and decreasing is located on the left  
side of the instrument box. This same feature is also present on  
Moog's Melodia instrument, which was also made in the early 1960's.
The high cost of this rare instrument is due to its being a one of a  
kind, hand made(by Mr. Robt. Moog himself!) item that was created  
back in the 1960's.
Please feel free to get in contact with me here through this email  
address, if any of you have questions concerning this instrument or  
are interested in purchasing it from me.
Best,
Michael Evans

PS: for your enjoyment, here is an old ad for the Troubador from the  
early 60's.

The Troubador
A professional adaptation of the Melodia, the Troubador has a 115  
volt AC power supply instead of a battery,
special shielding so the instrument may be placed on any table or  
microphone stand to be played, improved tuning
adjustments, and a continuously adjustable timbre control.
1960 Price: $160.0
