2 things: 1) Does anyone know where to get a replacement cord for the syntaccordion 2) the harpsichord settings are distorting especially around mid-F. Can someone suggest what transistors I need to change?

Paul, I have the original brown syntaccordion manual. It doesn’t have the schematics but the operation instructions. It’s a 14 page manual. I could PDF under high resolution and send it to you. $25 via PayPal. It will take me about 30 minutes to scan this.

I purchased my Syntaccordionon eBay for $600. He included the brochure..original price around 1980… $6795. I plugged that into the CPI calculator and $6795 in 1980 is equal to $18,160 in buying power today. Wow. That puts into perspective how expensive these machines were. Cordovoxes were about $3500 back in 1975 so that would be $14,326 today. Again, a lot of money. Consider that the new Roland digital accordions (top of the line) are about $6500 Canadian. That’s not a bad price.
