Thanks,

Hi regarding Owners Manuals: Service Manual, Schematics & other technical documents are the main focus for sure. Roland & Yamaha have done an excellent job of making their Owner Manual Library available online, so that would be redundant BUT if it a " hard to find " owners manual, by all means YES.....
