See here's the thing though. As some of you may know,
I'm absolutely ∗in love∗ with my Mono/poly. I have a
very very extensive page dedicated to it:

www.mohodisco.com/monopoly

I don't ever want that synth to break. Being that Mo/pos
don't seem to turn up busted very much, I thought I'd go
for a busted Polysix for spare parts, in case the Mo/po
breaks in the future.

I will be turning my Mo/po into a table-top unit sometime
soon, and I'll need at least two of the knobs from the Polysix
for that (yep, they just gotta match). Basically, when I bought
this thing, I knew I was going to loot it for spare parts, even if
I did end up fixing it first, just for the education experience.

I also bought it so that I could have a synth that I could open
up and fool around with, without worrying about breaking
anything, because the thing is broken anyway. And cosmetically,
it's a 6 out of 10.

I will concede that I'm a newbie here... so any further advice
would be helpful. For what it's worth, I am sending the PCB
from my Polysix to old Crow for him to give it a once over...
