Purchase rubber contact strip UK? Electro 5D 61

Post by ACCORDIONWOMAN »

Does anyone know where I can purchase the correct rubber contact strip for a Nord Electro 5D 61, please? I believe this uses the FATAR TP80 keybed.

On a side note I have been told by a reputable Nord repair company in the UK that this would negatively affect the calibration of the keybed, as each keybed is individually calibrated at the factory.

Any thoughts on this?


I have tried swapping a section of the rubber contact strip with a piece from a lower octave, this has solved the problem I had and the keys seem to be responding correctly from what I can tell. I think I'd be happy to give it a go anyway.
