    Unfortenatly can not recommend this shop because of a bad experience during communication.
    The guy boomer turns into a very rude communication and then refuse to serve me.
    Problem here is that there can not handle adresses in Europe. Still watiing to get my money back, lets see how this will be end.
    About pysical repair of course can not say something, but all recommendation sounds very good.
    But on there skill to threat people there have to work on it.
    Who is interesting i can provide the complete email correspondance and then you can tell me youre opinion about it, if i had make a mistake.

    I took my SH 101 into LA Synth Co in the Spring of 2017 to get the SH 1oh1 mod installed. The price was absolutely fair, and the timing was as quoted (3 weeks). He also cleaned up the synth and went above and beyond just inputting a mod. I will be returning with many other synths in the future. His repairs are done in the Future Music store, so you can also browse other synths if the mood strikes you :)

    When my girlfriend picked up a used Roland Alpha Juno 2 and found it wasn't working as perfectly as expected, Michael Boomer of LA SynthCo did a wonderful job of restoring her 1986 analog synth to full working order-- Cleaning the board and replacing pesky key contacts for a fair price, while providing good communication through the whole process. He knows 80's Rolands well. Highly recommended!

    I had a USB problem with my Maschine MIDI controller. I called Native Instruments and they told me I had to send it to them and it would cost $110.

    I then called LA SynthCo (Boomer) on the phone, hoping for a faster and more affordable option, and he actually recognized from experience that it probably wasn't in fact a hardware problem; I simply had to update the driver on my computer. He was absolutely right. He was extremely helpful and friendly and this was all over the phone.

    He saved me $110 and weeks of not having my gear!

    ... Michael Boomer at LASYNTHCO is the very best. He rescued my Korg Polysix keyboard synthesizer from purgatory. I'd recently gotten it back from a well-known eBay synthesizer "spa" guru who took the better part of a year to install a modification that should've literally taken a day - only to end up damaging it! (This is a pages-long saga destined for the gear forums to warn others of doing business with this particular person.)

    I didn't know what else to do but bring my synth in to Michael Boomer. He'd done some work on my Alesis Micron before, installing a lighted screen modification. It worked perfectly, and still does. It was a quick & pleasant experience too. ...
