Korg MS-20 Filter Surprise

Korg MS-20 Filter Surprise

2010-01-18 by pikil@ameritech.net

I recently opened up my MS-20 to fix some key contacts and clean up some pots.  My unit HAS THE SCREW in front, but to my surprise I found the Korg 35 filter chips and no extra board.  The screw is attached to the board and really looks like it was originally built that way.

So, you may not know for sure which version you have unless you look inside.  Also, the screw does not screw out, it's held in by a bolt behind the main board.  Anyone else have one like this?
