Of course, who wouldn't.

My experience with keyboard repairs is totally different - when I had a problem with a keyboard, I called a local dealer with a repair shop - they said I had to bring the keyboard in and leave it in the shop, even though they did not expect the one technician to get to it for over two weeks.


This stresses the importance of developing an on-going relationship with a LOCAL factory authorized keyboard repair center. Lucky for me, one of the head technicians at my local autthorized Yamaha repair shops just happened to attend one of my shows, and came up to me after the show, offering to help me with his services whenever I needed it. That was among the luckiest music business connections I ever made.
