korg poly800 : before sell, to modify or not to modify

2002-07-26 by GoodTimeTribe

I've got a korg poly-800 MK1 in good condition that I'm about to sell, but 
was wondering if I should modify it first (add the backup battery, add 
knobs for resonance/cutoff/noise). I think I could do an alright job since 
these mods are relatively easy, but I was wondering if I would benefit 
monetarily from doing the mods before selling or if I should leave it in an 
as is condition, as otherwise I have my hands full with plenty of other 
projects. Plan to sell it on the eBayne and from doing a little research, 
it looks like it sometimes goes one way or the other, however I don't see 
many of these units that are sold in a modified condition. Has anyone 
bought one that was already modified?

Thanks,
Joshua
