I've been very interested in the purchase of a theremin for some time now. But it seems to be quite an expensive instrument. And being as I've never played one in my life, I don't want to throw a ton of money at one just in case it turns out not to be for me.

I'm hoping to find a used one in the models listed above in the $200. or less range. Might be willing to pay a bit more if it's a really good deal.

I hope I'm not being unrealistic in my expectations of a reasonable price. I have the amplification covered. So the theremin is the only thing I need.

I live in the Northern Kentucky area. So if I'm lucky enough to find one for sale around here, I would even be willing to trade some carpentry skills to get one.

Thanx,

"I would even be willing to trade some carpentry skills to get one."

You've got carpentry skills..

Your brother has electronics skills..

You can buy an EW board for less than $100 http://www.instrumentalparts.com/brd-10-011-211.html

You will need a few easy-to-get parts costing probably $50

You can add the YAEWBM circuit costing <$5

And you could have a  good theremin for under $200 even if you needed to buy a frequency counter!
