This synth sold on 2-27-2026.

SOLD: An Access Virus C Desktop in very good condition. As usual, we have given the unit a thorough inspection and upgraded a few things along the way. 

Details below:

All tact switches have been replaced with new, brand-name tacts rated for 1 million clicks. All function perfectly, like new.
The original Nichicon power supply filter capacitor in this unit was replaced with a new Panasonic EEU-FR1E101. The Panasonic's high ripple current handling and low ESR minimize heat and ensure exceptional reliability and performance for all downstream components in this beautiful C Desktop.
A new Energizer lithium 2032 cell has been installed, so you should not need to replace the battery for the next ~10 years.
Installed a new black and white display (more like dark blue on white/light blue). While not OEM colors, it makes a nice replacement on the Cs.
Custom walnut sides with ebony stain. This is the first pair of sides we made, so there are some saw marks on the bottom. They look fantastic otherwise, so we are happy to leave as is.
The synth has been thoroughly cleaned inside and out, including the knobs. There is no sticky residue or buildup commonly seen on many Virus units of this era.
There was a mishap 2 years ago when installing a new AMP RELEASE potentiometer. A jump was needed to repair the panel board and bring the pot back. This is a professional repair and there is no reason it won't last, but wanted to disclose.
There are a number of imperfections in the finish. Please examine all photos carefully. Most notably, there is some bubbling in the finish around the LCD bezel and along the left edge, as well as below the PART < > buttons. There is nothing we can do to address this that won't make it worse. The inside of the faceplate has been sanded down and sealed with Rustoleum (see photo 18). The top of the faceplate has been this way for ~2 years and has not degraded further, but someday it may.

As always, we have a deep love for all things Virus. With a full inspection and the maintenance work done, it is well prepared for a second life with its new owner.

Sale includes the synth and a new, high-quality power supply.
