KORG is celebrating 20 years of the classic microKORG with the launch of the special edition microKORG Crystal. As the name suggests, this reincarnation of the classic microKORG features a ‘skeleton’ type semi-translucent chassis with matching knobs and controls, meaning you can see right into and through the instrument to the electronics and internals.
It features a stainless mirror-finish front panel which blends with the semi-translucent controls, plus aluminium side panels for a sturdy feel.
It even comes with a a dedicated carry bag — made from transparent vinyl of course — so your microKORG is shown off at all times.
