Subject: My first synthy...!!!

Hi there!Great site with lots of info!
I'm a little newbie with electronic music world but i just bought my
first synth and guess which is?
A Korg Poly 800 MkI!Well,i suppose so(it doesn't has a delay...).

The thing is that my synth is in bad condition and i'll have to
dedicate a few hours of work on it...
Firstly i'm gonna clean it and maybe solder a few new switches.
I'm impressed with the MoogSlayer mod and i'll certainly try it in
the near future,too.
Do you have any other mods to try?

Another thing that i want to ask is how i can improve the look of my
synth(it is a little damaged and ugly looking).In the files section
i found a lot of cool images and i really love this poly800 in dark
blue look.Is it an easy thing to paint the Poly?I can't find any
info about "look" enhancement on the messages area...

Sorry for my bad english...:)
