good news for everyone looking for the SY-1 schematic - a high res scan of the service manual is finally available!
download it here.
the whole thing provided by mister James Wetzel in Chicago, who had the bright idea to simply email the people over at Pearl. now how come no one thought of that before? weird.
James had this to say about the exchange:
'Funny thing is the guy at pearl that i spoke with on the phone, gene okamoto, was super friendly and said something like "Pearl Syncussion...... Aha, now that's a name I haven't heard in a long, loooooong time." It was like the scene in star wars when obi-wan reacts to luke calling him obi-wan...
(...) and gene seemed to get a kick out of hearing the word "syncussion". '
well, there ya go, james. and gene. syncussion. hehe.
the above is a snippet of an email i got from james to ask for more info on the mods i did..
so i'm considering putting up a better mod guide now i have the service manual. stay tuned!
