Has Anyone Ever Had To Order A Part from Korg?

Post by Wizard »

The pitch bending stick on my korg poly 61 fell into the body of the keyboard, and the arched metal piece that went over it to control modulation has apparently disappeared.

i need to order the piece from korg. They haven't made this synth for like 25 years or something.

am i fucked?

help!
I've got a fuzzbox and i'm not afraid to use it

well i hope not. especially since they are still are still manufacturing stuff. it would seem as if they have must have authorized Korg repair places dotted across the country. if not, there must be some place where you can get a part for it or get it repaired?

i like Korg stuff i am not even gonna lie. they have that Microsampler thing coming out, which i don't want but it seems cool. & today i saw that Sonic Youth uses a Korg rack tuner. i have two Korg multi-FX products myself & will end up buying more stuff in the future.

Korg Love !!!

:joy:

if contacting korg fails, i know a nice repair dude out on the mainline...i think ardmore? he might have some parts? he has tons of old shit in his place and is an expert on lots of shit, even saw a busted tri fuzz there. was tempted to grab and run. haha. ill havta dig up his number i got it somewheres.

hes a stand up dude, he looked at my juno 106 for like a month and didnt charge me anything when i decided i wasnt going to get it fixed (b/c it was more fucked up than i originally thought).
