I had bought a small aftermarket board to recap the power supply. I populated the board and installed it but the piano was still scratchy and noisy. Sooo, I bought this kit and oh my goodness. The piano is as dead silent as it's ever been since I bought it from the original owner 20 years ago. Easy to install if you have a good iron, a few drill bits and some 60/40 solder. I took my sweet time and had it done in 2 hours. My only regret is that I didn't buy it one day later for the Black Friday sale.

I've repaired/restored countless Peterson power amps, and I actually enjoy doing so. For a lot of people, recapping is what they feel is needed to get their power amp up to spec, and while in some cases this might be true, there are so many things (intermittent headphone jack, a short in wiring, crumbling 4 pin connector) that can go wrong and cause problems down the road, there's no question as to a full refurb if possible, which is what this offers, addressing all potential issues in one job. I probably won't do anything else to fix power amps—no matter the issue—as it just doesn't pay, as once you take the amp out of the cabinet you might as well go all the way and not have to worry about anything (in that regard) for another 50+ years. This is the way to go 100% of the time. Great instruction, took 2.5 hrs from beginning to end the first time around and worked perfect, not a surprise. Thanks again Vintage Vibe!

When I installed the power supply kit I was very unhappy first. It didn't seem to work . I connected the wires and plugged in the pre-amp of my suitcase... no sound at all. I expected to hear the waves of the sea, you know , the common soft hiss and some hum. But nothing. Sad... Then I just touched a key.... WHAM. It was on. On full power. In combination with the VV preamp it is dead quite. This is a fantastic upgrade. It's a pitty customs rate, clearance and TVA are that high for buying in Europe. EP service?

I always recommend this upgrade whenever I see a Suitcase Rhodes piano with Peterson 4 pin electronics.

Kudos to whomever designed the kit —perfectly fitting a new design into vintage electronics takes a lot of research and development. Special thanks should go to whomever wrote the installation instructions at Vintage Vibe, they didn’t miss anything. Make sure you read the instructions before ordering in order to make sure you can handle the job, or get the job done by a qualified tech near you.

Chris Carroll and the team know I QA every product like a nut — but hands down, this kit is perfect!
