Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Thanks Gordon :)

I took the back off the 101 today and can confirm the problem is 90% likely a fizzy drink spill. I got the gunk off the case and the cartridge flap, which now no longer sticks.

I took out the screws to the main & slave boards and mod wheel but had to abandon it because the sun was going down and I wussed out abit :0} I'll have another go, probably over the weekend.

Ben :)
