Thanks, Mr. G. I appreciate the comments. Pretty much confirmed what I suspected. I dislike the idea of being on tour and opening the instrument up every few days to make adjustments, so I'll be carrying a transformer. I'm again surprised that Nord, while making such great instruments, can nail the complexities and blow it on the basic stuff. And ultimately, it's the basic things that make problems for the players.

Hi Everyone,

I’m from the UK and will be touring the US bringing my own Nord Stage 2EX and I need to get a transformer... does anyone have any recommendations on which one to buy? By doing this way, I wouldn’t need a new fuse or switch the voltage right?

Cheers,
Lauren

Hi All... I also moved from the US to UK and will have to open up my Nord Stage Classic to switch the voltage...I just want to confirm that the correct fuse I should buy is the 125mA. Is it 125 or 1.25? Thanks!!!

Hi, If i try to use the transformer instead moving the switch from 110v to 220v Should i still need to change the fuse ? Thanks!

No need to change the fuse.
