I have like 5-6 C64's in my storage. As far as I know, they all work. One someone "fixed" at one point but never put the screws back in.

If you only need it for music, I have a SwinSID

Chris,
I saw that seems to be about the going rate. I was hoping to get a mostly working one for somewhat less than that.

Not sure I can spare one (my C64s are very disorganized right now), but wanted to let you know that the going price for a SID on eBay is around $40. If you find one cheaper than that, grab it.

My new-to-me C64 has a very failed 6581 SID. 2 voices are bad (one is mostly stuck on), it gets super hot, and after running for a while it makes the machine lock up.
Does anyone have a mostly-working SID they would want to part with?
PS: Sidbench shows just how broken this one is. I was rather bummed since this seems to be a low hour C64. https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=nU88B_mWQM8
