Vintage Synth Repair

hey doug:
looks like i'm interested in that CPU board after all. my board is exhibiting signs of 
complete cpu breakdown... losing certain voices (only temporarily), certain keys are 
quieter than others, extremely resonant sounds (even with the res turned off), weird pitch 
anomalies, 
let me know what i need to do to get that board from you as quickly as possible. i have to 
install it before my next tour... i am reachable at jamieshields (at) rogers (dot) com
thank you,
-J
