Yamaha CS80

Hi all.

I've been seeing these kits lately:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270523309766

Anybody know about these? Looks like it could be a good idea - or an easy way for someone to really mess things up :)

Isn't that Gavin's - you can see his videos on repair on YouTube?
I ordered a couple of kits (one of each). Saves time shopping for the individual pieces at Digikey and elsewhere.
Cheers!

From what I can tell all those parts are currently available parts that you could buy from Mouser for a lot cheaper...

True - but it is convenient. I remember when I did this is took some time to order all the parts. For each CMOS IC I had to make sure I had the right version and package and for the caps it's hard to tell the size from catalogs.
