So much interest was generated from the NAMM 2024 launch of the KORG PS-3300 FS, that they will now be available on a limited run.

Earlier this year, the Japanese synth giant singlehandedly dispelled the myth that “there are never any synth releases during NAMM.

This week, just in time for Superbooth 2024, KORG has announced that they will be producing this rare reissue on a limited basis. Hopefully, you’ll be able to own one by the end of this year.

Between 1977 and 1981, only 50 PS-3300 units were ever built, so to have this analogue dream machine in your studio has been wishful thinking until now.

With the PS-3300 FS, KORG will add it to the list of revived legends, alongside:

Bringing these legendary devices back to life is not only a process of reproducing circuits and sounds but also learning and internalizing the philosophy behind the development of synthesizers. Through this project I was able to relive the history of KORG and an important moment in the evolutionary history of our synthesizers. This was an extremely valuable experience that created an opportunity to pass on KORG’s philosophy and technology to future generations.

Working on the project as an advisor was Fumio Mieda, the PS-3300’s original designer. So we can certainly believe KORG when terms like “collector’s masterpiece” are thrown around.

The idea is to make this legendary synth accessible to a new generation of music producers and synth heads all over the world. As proved with the other synths in the FS series, KORG pays attention to detail to allow the user to relive the experience of playing this rare vintage synth.
