Re: Power switch styles
The black rocker is the USA version and the white is the European market.
The mains power wiring is a bit different for both so different switches

Re: Power switch styles
Hi Richard.
From what I’ve seen, the narrow, black switch is on the US version and the square white on the UK/European version. I’m sure there’s some experts here with more info.

Re: Photo resistor P588 G50 201B signed PH1 and PH2, where to find orig part/replacement?
Does anyone know if the photo resistors that are in the E-30, E-50, or E-70 etc. might work in a CS-series synth?

Many thanks for the reply. Hmmm, sounds like I have yet another endless quest on my hand here, these CS-80s are certainly no walk in the park to fix and maintain. Will check with Kent Spong

Re: Yamaha YC-45D organ expression pedal usable with a CS-80?
