Korg POLYSIX

"The KLM367 board had a battery leak ( very common ) and it was restored by vintage synth specialist at SDmachines in Miami. The old Rechargeable NiCad battery was removed and replaced with a lithium battery and diode combination that does not leak and is good for many years. Also, Two of the 74LS08 chips were replaced (these chips are known for dying in a polysix), along with resistor array R17 and some traces. This board came with the optional Korg Midi board, but was disabled because it was not functional, and returned to the original stock state. The board is in the machine and perhaps can be brought back to life by someone with the knowledge and necessary parts.

All the synthetic veneers were redone in real Walnut Veneer and then polyurethaned in satin finish. This Polysix is in good functional working conditions and looks very nice with the exceptions of a few very minor cosmetic flaws."
