As for  OEM parts


Dear All, 
 
OEM parts are going to get harder to come by. In a related activity, synth  
restoration, it is becoming apparent that the introduction of 'lead-free'  
components is being used as an excuse to cull many important older devices. Some  
of these are in use in instruments in current production!
 
Trouble is, a lot of the electronics industry today is governed by what  will 
be in your next mobile phone...
 
Also some components vanish as regulations change, the old Bulgin mains  
connector is one of those.
 
As for lead-free, I still use 'full-fat' solder.
