This Moog Minimoog project was to proceed to an electronic, mechanic, and cosmetic complete restoration.

This Minimoog wasn't in great shape when arriving:
The VCO 1 was dead, the Pratt & Read keyboard was totally freak and the wood cabinet...ugly.
This poor Mini has been in storage for years, sleeping into a wet cellar...
The Moog has became a kind of museum, for an exotic collection of bugs, spiders and flys...
The idea was to clean, repair, refurbish and overhaul everything.

The goal to reach: to obtain an instrument at its maximum degree of "mint condition".

To have a pristine Minimoog, better than a brand new one in the box ;)

Each part, each screw has been checked. 70 hours of work.
A long job, but a real pleasure to bring back a beauty to life.

Here is a non-exhaustive selection of things done
