That machine is truly one of my great all time ebay deals.  Folks picked 
it up in cali for me for 200 with an a perfect anvil flight case in 
perfect condition save the keys seem to need a little lube.  They just 
seem a little sluggish compared to my CS20M with the same movement.  
Anyway I have the diagram from Yamaha's site but as a service guy of 
course I'm not supposed to share them.  As you see on my website the 
CS-15 and a lot of others are on the fdisk site.  I'm not sure how 
they/if they got permission or if Yamaha resents this at all.  Anybody 
up on Yamaha's attitude on this stuff? -Bob
