No wood, red LEDs.

Funny that it would show up here before Moog announced it--particularly overseas.

Still looks like wood in the black and white picture, but I would guess that it is plastic.

I prefer the blue lights on my Tribute, thank you very much.....

If this thing really does sell on the street for less than $1,000 bucks, Moog should make a killing, and deservidly so. Anywhere I can buy stock in Moog???

Heck of a synth for $1,000.......

Yeah I like the blue better but for a few hundred bucks less its ok with me! I like the Moog logo and plastic!

I think this sums up the Stage Edition well enough:

This odd looking fellow holds a price tag of $1375.00 US dollars.
Only $100 less than the Tribute?
Interesting.

I like the looks of this one so much better than the tribute edition.

Virus Killer!

Just kidding! The black and grey with red leds make it seem like its competing with the Virus.

The two synths are really apples and oranges though.

Looks great! Hats off to Moog again

Sweet. I like the red/amber better than the blue/purple buttons, but thats just me. Sure to be a hit.

only $100 difference?? WTF?

I should've grabbed the tribute instead of waiting!

Very nice! I like the look, much cleaner than the tribute edition and the color scheme is neat. I was impressed to read that the end caps are not plastic, but a rubberized material. I wasn't going to consider getting a little phatty, but the new stage edition has changed my mind, i'm glad I waited!

I hope they don't change it.

Moog music is doing a really good job on product design. Congratulations!

I love the "classy" look of the Tribute, but the color scheme of the stage edition is a well chosen variation and the fact that the end pieces are not just plain plastic is a big thumbs-up!

Looks great huh?

Everyone is saying Red leds...?

Those look pretty orange to me...

Great Job Moog !!

hmm, not quite sure if like it or not.....

comparing these two i much prefer the tribute but the stage does look really cool in this one

looks really 70's roland (which is a good thing IMO)

whereas the tribute looks more like a time traveler, oscillating back and forth between the 1960's and the year 2006.
yeah i'm sure the stage would look really amazing in person, i reckon black sides would look better though

i think the stage edition looks pretty awesome. the fact that they're listing for only $100 difference DOES make me wonder if I should go with the tribute instead. They both have features that I really dig though. I like the orange/red lights. but who doesnt want those sweet wood panels!??! i agree black might've looked better for the rubber sides. i totally want wood sides, but i think the bob signature is sort of cheesy. hmmmm, whats a guy to do?

if the difference is only $100, I wonder if Moog will consider selling the wood sides as an 'upgrade' package. They look like they attached the sides with a simple design (6 simple screws)... so maybe that was part of the plan?

people are actually selling tributes USED on ebay already. I wonder if thats due to the unveiling of the stage edition.

It's really a matter of personal taste, I don't care for the wood sides on the
LP, IMO it appears like it's trying to look retro..I think the new rubber sides
are more appealing to the overall shape and design. The moog logo on the back isn't glaring and looks alot cleaner than the large signature thats on the LP Tribute. The auto-tune is a great idea too. I see that Nova Musik is taking pre-orders already at $1249. count me in!
