Rare electric prototype circa early 80's, no serial number anywhere. Any info on this rare beauty would be appreciated.

Welcome! Nice lookin' critter. I know that I have seen a photo of one of these before...
I just have no idea what all the buttons do! :confused:



But I look forward to one of the more educated members having all the answers. :cool:

Looks like a version of the Steve Ripley stereo system that was marketed by Kramer for a while. Uses a hexaphonic pickup, and the six knobs are pan-pots.

Welcome Pixxelator!

Too many knobs for this kid. It's gotta qualify as a Semi-hollowbody with all that access plating.

Thank you Paul Templeman, it's indeed a Steve Ripley stereo system. I still need to do more homework on this one.
