Hi there,
I have been offered a Poly-6 at a half decent price but it will be
bought sight unseen with the old battery still in there and the
following problem: "on the poly setting in that it doesn't play
chords properly (misses some notes). All the other settings (mono
etc) work fine."
Firstly, has anyone encountered this poly setting problem before. Is
it a battery-ooze problem or a dirty keys problem or could it be
something else?
Secondly, if I can get the guy to drop the price to £100
($150?) - in your opinion, is it still worth taking the risk?
Finally, I have a tame electronics expert who's happy get into the
guts of the machine. I have found Old Crow's schemetics and
instructions (nice website Mister O. Crow!!!) and he's happy wioth
those. One more question - anyone got any idea how easy it is to get
hold of replacement components if they need replacing?
All I want is a broad overview from people more experienced than me;
and I won't hold it against you if I end up with a crocked machine!
cheers
Frank Blades
