This is the closest you'll ever get to having a TR-909. It's completely practical and in best cosmetic condition. It is now ceased for around 10 years now so is a vintage in and of itself. It has genuine analog created drum tones and has a kick and snare that will make you question where the TR-909 is. I have great ratings on the online forums and ebay. Ebay and elektronauts as dajaphonics and Muffwigger as clapclap. If have any questions, kindly let me know.
