Re: MiniKorg 700 Restoration Project - Parts needed!

2010-09-20 by nervejam

I've just been outbid on an auction for an F key. I went as far as usd 35. God knows how far the other bidder would have gone? (the seller was vintageplanet, btw)
Any suggestions?
Need a G as well.. Can't afford usd 70 for two keys..
