Thought I'd leave a note for the record... Listed and sold the synth on eBay this afternoon with a buy-it-now option at $465 and it sold in less than two hours.

Today the output jack broke and the headphone jack had been broken since I bought it so I decided to fix both problems. The repairs went fine and its cool that I can now use headphones BUT now 6-10 on the bank selector doesn't work :( couple this with the fact that half of the buttons on the left panel don't work and it leaves me with half the functionality that I used to have because I would modify existing patches that had functions on/off of the dead switches.
