- I bought this arranger keyboard very cheap - 100 dkr or the quivalent of 15 US$. Naturally there were some problems with it and one of them I haven't repaired yet as I don't have the right size of battery springs on hand.
The video is quite long - at least compared to my usual standard - so there are four songs this time, all played on the Casio: The first is a reggae-ish bass and trumpet solo-noodle-whatever-thingy that I concocted in a quite short time. The second is 'a Good Heart' originally recorded by Feargal Sharkey in 1985. The last two are the build in demo songs. - เพลง
Ribbons without connectors are the bane of every vintage consumer keyboard collector. Makes repair so much more labor intensive. Casio was definitely a repeat offender- likely done as a cost-saving measure. Those early WK series boards were huge!
At least it had a manageable pitch (distance between wires) and was surface soldered instead of through holes.
You have great technician skills! Sometime I try myself to repair faulty keyboards I get somewhere, but where soldering techniques are required I raise my hands.
amazing soundtrack💪🤓👍❤❤
Nice work
@organfairy Hi!! Mister...!!
I own a keyboard, its CASIO WK3800 very long ago!!
But I have an issue with my keyboard...
I feeded it with a 12 volt 20Amp-hour and I accidentally blew up my own keyboard... It doesn't run anymore 😢 on the main input feed for AC... Now I feed it with same battery (12v20Amp-hour) on the battery input (that's below -you know-, but this time I'm using a 15 ohm ceramic resistor (a huge one) to protect it...
My request sir is...
Can you teach me how to repair the main AC feed so my keyboard can run normal again?
Hoping you reply my message dear sir!!
Respectfully yours

I have wk1600 model, hissing sound occurs when press any playing key. But when I select bank memory and play the keys, good sound occurs.dsp button also not working.please help me to solve the problem. Thanks
At the time when these keyboards were new everyone who was serious about music wanted something that was brand new and keyboards
from the 80s and early 90s like Casiotone or Yamaha Porta Sound keyboards were either relegated to the loft, given away or shoved at the back
of a wardrobe. But now everyone seems to want a vintage Casiotone keyboard more than something like this. It's just funny how 20 years ago many
people didn't value really old vintage keyboards compared to now. I was never keen on that fake plastic silver finish from the early 2000s, black looks
better than silver. For a Casio keyboard it's sounds are not bad, it has fairly decent sounding pianos, e pianos and organs.
My favourite paradox is that back in the 1980s we did our best to make our analog tape machines sound as good as possible. Today sound designers try their best to make their digital equipment sound 'analog' and imperfect. It's a weird world we live in!
Hi, i just picked up a used wk3000, with the screen “glitching” or switching between options when using the directional buttons and number pad. Can I ask what I should use to clean the contacts on them? Thank you. It was supposed to be a gift for my friends daughter, so im bummed i got one with screen issues, all for $40, and a 2 hour drive.
Mình định mua một cây đàn cũ giống cây đàn này cho con nó học liệu có ổn không bạn???
did you just clean with isopropyl alcohol? Or use a special solution? Thank You..❤❤
That was just isopropyl alcohol.
what liquid did you apply on the rubber button?
Saya ada casio ctk 671 apa bisa diservis?
8:39 Wait, are you wearing a skirt?
No
Looks like a Utilikilt or similar
Yes
Casios became cringe back when the WK-1800 was new!
I'm still okay with the aforementioned keuboard though!
How can a keyboard be "cringe"?
@@organfairy Good question!
