Hi maletras,

In the same boat here...

Did you manage to find one?
I've seen some for sale on eBay, which are supposedly good photocopies, but I'm not sure how good.

Actually, I'm not even sure how good the originals were.
(which could explain why the PDF we can find now are not so great).

Anyone here has a good very readable copy??
Or can answer as to if the original one has good quality?

Thanks!

Hi SOS 

I went to the korg service site and asked for the original manual, which they were kind enough to provide by email a couple of days later. This PDF is good quality and you can discern all components values. Hope this helps.
