Vintage Synth Repair

Yes, you can get into those sliders and I think you need to. But...be 
very carefull. There is a chance you end up with dead sliders..

Other possibility is that you send those sliders you want repaired 
over to me. But it won't be cheap ...You'll find my address in the 
links section under 'Saint Eric's Analoge Synthesizer Reparatie 
Atelier'.

Regards,
Eric.
