Here is a cool, early ANALOG MIJ drum machine that can give you plenty of sonic options. This Univox SR-55 Rhythmer is still working and is in great condition. With all the knobs and switches, you could spend plenty of time coming up with your own unique sounds and rhythms. You can also run this unit through delay/chorus effects for even more options.

ALL SALES ARE FINAL - NO RETURNS
ALL ITEMS ARE SOLD IN AS-IS CONDITION
CONDITION:
This device is in great, pre-owned condition. The only issue(which in our opinion is not even an issue) with this electronic device is that the original owner painted the casing black (maybe they were heavy Rolling Stones fans), for some unknown reason. Guessing that the cat didn't like the original wood toned vinyl(?) covering that these units came with? However, the paint does not affect the operation of the device whatsoever and everything seems to be in great, awesome sounding, full working condition.
All of our assorted electronic gear is offered in complete, working condition.
DIMENSIONS:
The dimensions of the device are approximately 15" long X  9 1/2" wide, by & 5" tall at the highest point. She weighs in at a robust 7 pounds, 15 ounces. That's a fairly large baby!

***SPECIAL NOTE: It is with a very heavy heart that we wish to share the news of the recent passing on
Dec 6, 2020, of our almost 12 year old red & white beagle, our beloved Ace. He was our mascot and namesake of this shop on Reverb.com. He gave us the initial inspiration to sign up with Reverb.com in their early days, primarily due to his name that we chose to use on this fantastic website. He was also the chief of security & official greeter for our bricks & mortar shop, always ready to engage with the customers; tail wagging, always happy & forever on the lookout for any ingestible treats that our customers wished to share with him as well as a nice butt or belly rub.
Ace is, and will continue to be, very sorely missed by all who knew him. Our shop will never be the same without his presence. But, his intense spirit and joie de vivre lives on, through our loving memories of him and also via this wonderful platform online. Love the heck out of ya, Acie!!***
