Ace Tone Rhythm Ace FR-2L｜ Other Products

This 60s Ace Tone drum machine is a favourite in the office - it nails those classic, "woody", full-bodied early analogue drum sounds and it's perfectly designed for stacking lots of other gear on.
Serviced and working well.
Condition is very good. Some yellowing of the buttons and minor scuffs and dings but for it's age it is very clean.
For sales in UK/EU the price will include VAT. VAT-free sales are possible to businesses and individuals in the EU (outside the UK) with a valid VAT Number - please get in touch if you wish to buy this way.

It is a 100v Japanese model and will run fine on North American mains 115/120v without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power)

A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU.
We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers and can supply a high quality UK-made unit if required.

Very similar to the FR-1 - it actually has the same controls, except that the order of the presets is reversed and it has no bass drum cut out switch. And of course it is a radically different shape - flattened out so it could sit on top of your organ.
Ace Tone was started by Ikutaro Kakehashi who went on to found the Roland Corporation. The build quality and attention to detail is generally great – these machines were built to last.
Here's one of a number of demos you will find on our Instagram featuring a similar unit we have for sale. Here's one to get you going:

Working well. Some crackle can develop but this will clear with use.
