Hi polysixers,I'm new here.
I've just 'inherited' a Korg Polysix, which however dosen't work. Now
I could take it too repair shop - but as I don't/they don't know
what's wrong with it(until I take it in),I have no idea what it it'll
cost me, and I'm on a v.tight budget at the momment! It's previous
owner said (a few years ago) that there's he was told it would cost
£100 to fix.
I might have a look at it myself with perhaps help from my'friends
electric' and internet wisdom.
Any advice/tips?
Also dya know where to get a hold of a manual-online perhaps?
And is the midi thing worth doing?
Thanks for any help
Den

Almost dead all polysix's have the same problem. Most likely the battery
has leaked all over the motherboard and destroyed traces. Also, most likely
that if it has been broken for a year it's condition has worsened since
then.

It's a bit like cancer I'm afraid, if you catch it early, it's not too bad,
but once it goes too far, it's pretty much over.

I presume you're located in europe?

Ask if you have any questions, I've fixed several polysix's, gutted the last
one for parts.
