A friend has a Yamaha p-515B for sale that is damaged. The physical damage is on the left side “end cap” and it looks like it was dropped on that end. The headphone jacks are there and they seem loose. I will be able to test them before purchase.
The bottom left white and black keys are not functioning. From A0 to E2, 20 keys. Additionally, 2 other keys 2 keys G7 and A7 are also non functioning. They move but there’s no audio.
A few other keys feel a bit “floppy” or sticky, with their movement causing some movement on adjacent keys.
Purchasing this would obviously entail repair costs and some risk.
I’ve played around a bit on it and everything seems to function normally except what is listed above. Is this fixable? (Assuming the issues are in the keybed?
Anyone have experience bring a Yamaha back to life?
Just wondering what I’m not accounting for in price negotiations?
What would you think this is worth?
