Does anyone know where to obtain a copy of the Casio AZ-1 keytar repair manual? They are the best keytars out there but... if anything goes wrong, you're sunk. Mine has a pitch bend wheel problem that results in it playing my Kurzweil about 1/4 semitone sharp. It's aggravating. My guess is that the pot is out of adjustment, but I have no idea how to adjust it. Any suggestions?

Ah yes... I know the feeling. EXACTLY know the feeling haha.
Check your PMs!

Hi, guys.
I've got a AZ-1 too. But 3 month ago, I've burned it up with too much voltage.
Now I need a Repair Manuual too. Ohhh, shit. I'm losing so much engagements.

Can anybody help me? ...there's no problem to spend some money.
Greetz,TonyB.

Hi Everyone,
I'm new here. I could use a repair manual too. If anyone needs the owner's manual, I'd be glad to share that. What I most need is a replacement for the main chip, a D78C11G030. It is the big, square, gray chip on the main circuitboard under the keyboard. I wish everybody luck with their AZ-1s; but if you can't get it working and decide to scrap it and sell parts, please contact me. It's probably best to do so at logang@ewashtenaw.org . Thanks, Guitarshrink

I really think you're giving me more credit than I deserve. It's hardly a "magical wealth", and it won't mean you will actually succeed in getting it fixed. Nonetheless, except a PM within 24 hours! Hopefully I can be of some assitance.

Anyway.... good GRIEF. This has got to be the only thread of its kind on the internet... surely
