HI Richard,
 
that´s a good idea bI won´t get to England before next year, if at all (we might be playing a concert there), and I don´t know how long such a repair would take. IF I went to England back and forth two times to deliver and collect the synth plus theservice charges... ugh, that might easily get me another CS somewhere here. Which doesn´t work properly, either, but that´s adifferent story 8)...
 
Kent Spong isn´t a former BBC technician, is he? Has anybody dealt with KEith Kniveton in the past? Peter Forrest seems to be rather fond of his servicing skills.
 
Thanks anyway.

Hi Stephen

 

I use a top CS80 restoration guy in the UK. So if you are able to get yours to England then why not contact the following:

 

Name: Kent Spong

Email: kent_spong@...

 

Kent has restored 20 x CS80’s for me which I have sold mainly into the professional domain in the last 12 months.

 

Regards

Hi folks,

 

just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Stephen Parsick, I´m from Germany and I´ve been a avid CS-80 user for years. I purchased my CS-80 in 2000 from a studio musician in France who was about to retire to Australia (and would have taken his CS to a dumpster, hadn´t there been some buyer for it). My CS is #1791, and apart from minor issues it plays well and looks great. Does anybody know a courageous technician in Germany who wouldn´t be afraid of touching a CS-80?

 

Regards,

 

Stephen.
