Vintage Synth Repair

I suspect we are talking about the differences between the different countries support centres.

I called Yamaha UK about parts for a CS50, and although they couldn't supply any, they did have the service manual there as they were able to look up part numbers.

I've always found them very helpful. a few years ago they supplied me with a service manual & schemos for my cs50; the document was dated december 1975, cost me £20 & took them two days to send to me. they've also supplied parts for my cs30 from stock. I wonder if they've changed their policy... this would be bad news....
