That button labelled 'Safe' is a bit worrying.

@maltingsaudio - I remember Andy Horrell from way back, so have already been in touch.

Also spoke to Stephen Randall a few days ago.

I know a tech who's very clued up on 80s synths including guitar synths, I've messaged him just now.

HarrySeven

Ta!

It's hard to describe to under 30 year olds how cool all this was in the 80's...along with Fairlights, etc.  It was the future!

The Synthaxe must have cost a fortune back then - just found this link that states £8,000 in mid 80's money.

@andyoz When launched, the SynthAxe was £10K.

Mine was significantly cheaper! (30 years after the event)

Just in case anyone's interested, I've created a Stepp DG1 Facebook page, so I can share links, images, docs, whatever...

Anyone know where I could get a Stepp repaired, including the replacement of a couple of frets, please?

HarrySeven

Yes. Pm sent.

Isn't talking to yourself supposed to be the first sign of madness? :-p 

When will this folly end?

Ah but it is a magnificent folly.....one day there will be the H7 Museum of Musical Wonders, perhaps?
