Southern California Synth Repair Tech

2008-11-25 by George

Sure thing:

His name is Dave Shuman and is located in downtown San Diego, CA.  By 
trade, he's an Intellectual Property Attourney with a biochemistry 
background, but loves to fix synths and other music gear on the side 
for fun. (LOL) 
He's a suuuuupernice guy. He had never seen an Emulator before until 
I brought him mine. When we opened the unit up, he seemed instantly 
familiarized with the components and their circuits. I dropped of the 
unit on Sunday at around 7pm and left shortly after.  At around 
10.30pm I had received an email that the thing was fixed and put back 
together. As I mentioned, he even reflowed ALL solder joints on the 
PSU and other critical components. That's what I call a quick 
turnaround. He's got a little repair shop going on in his apartment. 
Don't hesitate to call him if you're in the Southern California area. 
I will bring him all my other old synths from now one if anything 
goes south.

Anyways, here is his email address:

P.S. Elm, Yes, I am German/Portuguese, grew up there, but live in the 
USA since 1999.
