Hello again. . could you help me out and elaborate a bit on how you got the pitch bend so clean on your sk-5? I can get a couple of semitones pitch bend with a pot connected around the tuning coil, but you seem to have loads of pitch with your mod.. I'd really appreciate a bit of help here, 'cus my sk is a mess of wires and electrical tape. Every time it open it up something comes loose and needs repairing. Guess I should have done the pitch mod first......
I'll post some schematics on my blog and tell you when they are up... thanks for the interest! you should really check out Oceanus... his work inspired me to do this one...

Well it sounds absolutely FAB.
You are an inspiration, my SK-5 has been sitting around 'half-bent' for months. After hearing how ace yours sounds, I've gotta finnish it!
Good MAN...... :-))

thanks a lot. I'll post more videos because this one doesn't even skim the surface...

WOW, that's alot of pitch there on the SK-5.
Do I detect a new 'clock osscillator' in this machine?
What IC did you use, a 555 or a CMOS?

neither, I just added a little resistance and capacitance to either side of the pot.
