"Customized and Fully Restored
All electrolytic capacitors replaced on all circuit boards
Key contacts, tactile button, and switches cleaned and restored
Key contacts raised 1mm for excellent sensitivity and improved action
All new custom solid hardwood maple case
Fully tuned and calibrated All circuits and systems are 100% functional and sound great!
This Korg Mono/Poly has been fully restored to its original condition and beyond! On the outside, the original particle board and veneer case has been replaced with a solid hardwood maple case. Cosmetically, this Mono/Poly is even better looking than a standard stock model in excellent condition.
Korg used low quality electrolytic capacitors that have a high failure rate after 20 years. Most Mono/Polys still have these original capacitors and they are very likely to cause problems like instability and failed systems. We’ve replaced all 57 electrolytic capacitors in the synth to guarantee that this one won’t see problems for a long time.
Another common problem with this model is that the key contacts lose their conductivity, which causes keys to stop triggering. All the key contacts have been cleaned and restored to full sensitivity. The key action has also been modified to improve the feel and sensitivity by raising the key contacts 1mm."
