Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

All

Let me be the first of one of those "seem to be happy customers" to 
emphatically say that Andy is a first rate, extremely knowledgable, 
electronic god sent from above when it comes to the Poly 6.  He just 
finished and returned my 367 board with a fresh new battery and ALL 
the acid-eatin circuit paths fully repaired! And it was done in a 
timely and professional manner, at reasonable cost, and the work is 
flawless.  I just sent him 3 other boards today for his careful 
refurbishment.  My Poly 6 is near new again.  Give this man your 
crippled P6 components and he will make them scream again!!  Now I 
just hope he's not so overloaded that I get put in a queue!  
(Kidding!)

Sincerly, Mark
