[sdiy] L.A. surplus (found 5 octave keyboards)

[Peter Grenader]

I have seen these keyboards - they are at a surplus place on Vermont.  I
forgot the name.

They are in good sahape, but most are reported (by the people that work
there) to be non-functional.  Mechanically they are fine, so I'm sure they
can be made to do whatever one needs them to do with enough work.

The price is right - somewhere around $20 for four octaves (if I remember
correctly).

best,

Peter Grenader
