This is a video showing off the modifications I've made to my Yamaha PSS-130. You might want to turn down the volume; this thing gets pretty loud!

Added:
A 1/4" TRS connector so I could plug the keyboard into an amp. Normally, the PSS-130 only has a speaker out, which limits what you can do with it. So, I changed that.
10k Ohm Potentiometer (I forgot what it was called while trying to record the video) with a "normally open" momentary button to activate the bend.
An on-off switch to some glitchy, screaming noise points. Aka, "The Screamer Swtich."

It's not finished, yet. I want to add a second potentiometer with much higher resistance values for a wider range (with an on-off switch instead of a button) and see if I can find any other points that will produce glitchy sounds. If I ever get really crazy, I would love to add an LFO filter.
