The Unmistakeable Sound of the Yamaha DX7 $350

So impressive was its sound, playability and level of cool that minutes after its release, it was featured on almost every hit pop record. It defined the sound of the mid to late 80s, a sound resplendent in glassy chimes and crisp brass. And who can forget the amazing basses and electric piano tones. E BASS 1 heralded the rush of the opening scene of Top Gun as Kenny Loggins soundtracked F-14s departing the deck of an aircraft carrier. It gave us that funky bass line in A-ha’s “Take On Me” or tastefully backed Howard Jones’ soulful “What Is Love”. Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got To Do With It?” was almost all Yamaha DX7. This particular DX7 has toured the world and shows the wear and tear. That said, it had a refresh at Yamaha Corporate headquarters a few years ago and is in 100% working condition. Included in the purchase are the original manuals and a RAM pack.
