Not generally known is that Madonna was once a drummer, and continued playing even after signing with Sire Records in '82 and having a club hit with "Everybody". This Synare 3 drum machine was mailed to her address at 112 W. 72nd St., NY, NY 10023 on May 31, 1983. Because there was no doorman and the buzzer was broken, it was delivered to her producer/boyfriend John "Jellybean" Benitez. Both of their names are on the mailing label of the original box. The black drum machine has the original sticks & batteries and is in perfect working condition. Comes with LOA from Karon Bihari, a close friend to whom Madonna gave the drum machine in the early '80s.
