Yeah, and weeks more of wait time...maybe months. I dunno, I wouldn't have done it myself. The board is too expensive.

Nord Stage 3 - Europe

And even if he didn't void it, if he ever needs warranty service he has to ship it back to Germany. I took a look, it costs hundreds at best for a private person to ship something that big overseas. The vendor explicitly stated that all overseas return shipping costs are the buyer's responsibility.

Bottom line - it was a gutsy move to get the board early, hope it doesn't break on him or act bizarre because it's wired for Europe.


Shipping was only about $100 USD! I won’t have to ship it back to Germany. Any authorized dealer can work on it. Just to clarify, the fuse is external. The only thing I had to do inside was flip the switch from 230v to 115v. It was super easy.

Easy fix. Just needed the right T20 torx bit to get the screws out. Five minutes total, actual fix took less than five seconds.

Only bummer: I screwed the wood ends on too tight, which broke the wood slightly. :roll:
