    Description

    1978 ARP Odyssey
    Mk III model 2823
    Halloween
    Black
    &
    Orange
    aka the “Late” model with 4075 filter
    PPC Pitch and Mod controls
    NOT playable..
    Needs TOTAL restoration:
    ALL sliders are stuck, pratt reed key bushings bad
    plus .. contacts, capacitors, and calibration and 1 cracked D key
    My Hammond B3 rebuilding and Hi-Fi tube amp
    work does not allow time for that,
    sooo … here’s
    your
    next project!
    Acquired from a local musicians estate
    Was in storage and not played for
    many
    years
    Just barely working … not playable.
    Does
    power on..
    As expected, ALL Sliders are frozen, very difficult to move
    Fiddling with the very stubborn sliders resulted in:
    Osc-1 responded to most keys and produced low level notes
    through the VCF .. freq & resonance controls ..  to the VCA output
    Could not get VCO-2 to respond
    Very difficult to find “good spots” on all sliders,
    so other features functionality are unknown
    Control panel is dusty, but should clean up nicely
    Sides back and bottom show plenty of use
    *bottom kybd contacts cover missing
    **missing slider caps of course
