Looking for anyone who is interested in electronic music or vintage computers

Hello! I am Tobias Wilson, as a kid I used to visit the maker space a lot, and recently it hadn’t been on my mind until now and I was able to get my account back. since being gone a couple of years I got older and picked up a couple hobbies and was looking for like minded people or anyone who might be interested in selling/buying anything since I find it really hard to find things locally.

I’ve been looking for electronic music equipment, I’ve been wanting to get into synths but Ebay requires me to save up a lot of money and there isn’t really anything local I’m aware about so if anyone here has anything they don’t use i would be interested in being a buyer. Even if you do use it and don’t want to sell it, I would love to maybe just mess around with something for an hour since I don’t really have access to any analogue equipment at all

As for vintage computers, I have a CRT where the fly back transformer is arcing, and while I think I have a fix for it I’m sure someone here is a lot more knowledgeable on this kind of stuff and I would much appreciate anything other know. I also have a couple vintage computers i cant really afford to repair and i would be happy to sell off some things if anyone here likes repairing that kind of stuff

If anyone is into either of those two things I would really appreciate getting to know people especially since its been really difficult to really find anyone locally with similar hobbies

Sounds like you are shopping in the right aisle here!! By synths do you mean electronic piano type :musical_keyboard:? Are you specifically looking for working or non working units?

i’m looking for working stuff mainly, and i am also mainly looking for those electric piano’s but if you have any modular synths or anything even if they don’t work i’m interested in those too. i do a lot of electronics repair so i don’t entirely mind things that don’t work but in this specific case i really just want to find something that’s working so i don’t have to spend a lot of time fiddling around. what things do you have?

Mostly I mean you have come to the right place to find people with similar interests. I wish I knew more about electronics repair. My expertise is electrical wiring for buildings. Welcome aboard!!
