Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hi list,

I am considering going for a polysix but am put off by some 
quality/durability horror stories I've read. I have only ever owned 
one analogue synth- a Roland Juno 6. It is in beatiful condition and 
top working order. My research suggested that these were reliable, 
with sturdy keyboards and this was borne out in use.

On the other hand the poly seems to have been a popular live synth 
and most units have had their weak keys battered. That is my worst 
fear, that keys become intermittent or cut out completely, maybe 
even fall off!

Never experienced real VCO's either. I'm not very techy minded and 
probably wouldn't attempt the tuning myself. How many people here 
have poly's in full working order and how long could I expect it to 
remain so before requiring another service?

Thanks all,

Mike
