Analog Synthesizer Pratt Reed Rubber Bushings:
Have you noticed that the keys on your classic vintage synth have become noisy, loose, and sloppy? Time and wear has crystallized the rubber which leads to shrinkage and hardening of the Pratt-Read key bushing mechanism - the action used in many of the great synths and combo organs of the past including the Prophet-5, OB-Xa, PPG, most ARPs, and the Minimoog, Vox organs, Farfisa's.
You can restore the action and feel of your favorite vintage synth with these Pratt-Read bushings, which we manufacture, and a couple of hours of your time. Once installed, you will experience, perhaps for the first time, what this quality mechanism is capable of.
For lubrication of key bushings, try Dow Corning 7.
Our key Bushings come Dry unless you choose us to lubricate them.
