Realistic MG-1 (Moog)

Ah, this was my first analog synthesizer. It was a great way to learn, and an easy thing to lug around and add into our rock show that we were playing at the time. The filter and the oscillators were of course not as fat as the traditional Moog synths (there was a reason Radio Shack sold it, not Moog!), but it cut through the mix like nothing else.

Sadly it was sold to a group of hipsters here in Chicago with it’s custom made foam lined 60s suitcase that I got at AmVets. I hope you guys are still playing it!
