I love old Korg and Moog synthesizers. Especially the early analog units. ARP too. So cool!
And the Fender Rhodes piano too. Classic!
The later digital stuff is great too, especially after sampling became popular. But I have a soft spot for the 1970s and 1980s analog keyboards. The ones where you set the waveform, filters and attack and decay.
As for the cleaners, it's pretty much the same whether it's a computer, typewriter or electric piano or synthesizer. But surely the replacement cost is a difference. If it were an inexpensive item, then I could see where replacement might be the best option. The more rare or expensive it is, the more repair and cleaning makes sense.
