Korg MS20 number 1 is on sale in Japan

I've covered the legendary Japanese synth shop Five G in the past, but Steven writes to point out that on this page they're selling an MS20 with the serial number '1' for ¥207,900 ($1,700). They seem to sell a lot of MS20s, usually for a hardly any more reasonable ¥98k ($825). If you're in the area, could you sneak in and get us a picture of the serial number?


Comments:
I soooooo wanna visit this shop one day - happy with my sys100 and ms10 for now, but that sh5 looks real nice for the price
 
I drop into FiveG regularly as it's on my daily commute.
I don't have my camera with me today and I'm on holiday for nearly a week, if it's still there next week ...

Would you settle for a pic of my MS2000, it's in Japan too?
 
Ack... some of these prices are VERY reasonable and I'd love an extra 10-20 grand to blow on a shopping spree there. Their JP-8 is only around $2050...
 
....don't sweat it, I'm on the case - everything's shut down here in JP for a few days now, but I'll be sure to take a snap for all Otaku dudes out there very soon...
 
....anyway, the triumverate rack of Matrix 12's is the real pants-wetter at Five-G. It's just awesome.
