Synth-DIY Yahoo! Groups Archives

I can tell you of all kinds of weird / funny repairs,I had an electric piano that you could not depress about 6 keys in the middle octave,it turned out to be a mouse had filled the underside of the keys with about 2 handfulls of dry dog food,I had an organ that had a similar problem but it turned out to be candy wrappers,I showed the customer and she said "oh my gosh I fired my cleaning lady because I thought she was stealing my candy".

> I'm a basement tech in the middle of metalguitarland so I don't see many vintage synths come across my bench but I recently had a JX-8P in that had me on the floor laughing so I thought I'd share with the list.

> The IEC socket had been removed and a new power cord was spliced in and wrapped in clear Scotch tape with some additional Scotch tape covering the IEC connector's mounting hole. The owner complained that something was rattling around inside and that there were a few keys that wouldn't depress. I opened the synth up to find...two chicken leg bones and pork bone.
